Background
Guru Sanju explains the different dimensions she associates with sleep problems during Kundalini activation or awakening. She discusses oxygen, an overactivated mind, sympathetic nervous system activation, fight-flight-freeze states, restlessness, sunlight, dopamine, purposeful activity, medical and hormonal conditions, circadian rhythm, and the individual nature of Kundalini as important aspects to examine when sleep becomes disturbed.
She teaches that sleep is essential for restoring a healthy body, mind, and spirit and for allowing Kundalini to progress. She emphasizes identifying what triggers Kundalini at night, getting sunlight, spending time in natural surroundings, starting the day early, planning meaningful activities, pursuing work the person is passionate about, and investigating possible medical conditions. She also teaches that each person’s Kundalini wants something specific from life and that learning to understand these energy signals can help a person live accordingly and sleep better.
Why Sleep Becomes a Major Problem
Sleep is a major problem during Kundalini awakening. If you are going through activated Kundalini or Kundalini has awakened in you accidentally, the prime reason you may not be able to sleep well is a lack of oxygen in your brain, especially at night when your brain is deprived of the required oxygen for good-quality sleep.
There are many dimensions to not getting sleep at night during Kundalini awakening. You need to understand what is behind your problem, and if you are going through any of these conditions, you should work sincerely on processing Kundalini to get better sleep.
Without Good Sleep, Life Becomes Difficult
Without good sleep, you are not able to perform the functions of life. You wake up fatigued and may experience insomnia, chronic inflammation in the body, fibromyalgia issues, constipation, nervous system deregulation problems, and hormonal changes in the body.
Sleep is the best restoration for a healthy body, healthy mind, and healthy spirit. Without sleep, even Kundalini cannot progress well.
An Overactivated Mind Keeps the Body Alert
The brain requires certain conditions to fall asleep, and it needs to be in an alpha state to go into sleep mode. If your mind is too activated due to Kundalini, Kundalini creates a lot of aggravation in your system, and that aggravation leads to activation of the sympathetic nervous system.
When the sympathetic nervous system is activated, your body goes into fight-and-flight mode and freeze mode to the extent that it becomes difficult for the body to restore its parasympathetic mode. You remain in alert mode and in a restless state all the time.
Your mind remains overactivated and stays awake until late at night. I have come across people who complain about twenty years, thirty years, and even forty years of insomnia due to Kundalini awakening.
Find What Is Triggering Kundalini at Night
If you are in any of these stages, you need to understand that you have to fix your sleep issues at the earliest possible time. Look for the conditions that are triggering your Kundalini at night.
The second reason is that your brain may not be getting enough dopamine. Dopamine comes from sunlight, directly from sunlight. Getting sunlight is one of the reasons behind good sleep at night.
Do What Your Life Force Wants
Dopamine also gets released when you take the actions that your life force, your Kundalini, wants. Kundalini has awakened in you for a purpose, and if you fulfill that purpose, you feel that you have done your best.
You can do anything that you are passionate about in life. Along with such activities, expose yourself to sunlight in the morning and also in the afternoon.
- Take sunlight from 3 p.m. to 6 p.m.
- Take sunlight from 8 a.m. to 9 a.m.
- Or take sunlight from around 7 a.m. to 9 or 10 a.m.
When you do this, your brain automatically rejuvenates, and you receive the other benefits of sunlight that Kundalini wants.
Sunlight as a Source of Prana
For your information, sunlight is the highest source of prana on Earth. If you expose yourself directly to sunlight, fifty to sixty percent of your prana needs are fulfilled automatically just by getting access to the sun.
If you have the privilege of living in a country with enough sunlight, take sunlight and expose yourself to natural ambience. Spend time experiencing sunlight, blue sky, greenery, water, and nature in its natural state while simply being nothing.
Give Kundalini What She Wants
I have created a reality where I can spend time in places filled with nature. I conduct physical projects with my students in farmhouses, and right now I am doing this in South India. I express myself the way Kundalini wants.
Kundalini has benefited me in multiple ways. It has given me all that I could not imagine, and I am grateful to the universe that the universe is flowing through me.
All this experience and exploration is possible because of the grace and benefits I receive when I expose myself to whatever the universe wants to flow through me. I give Kundalini what she wants.
If she wants sunlight, I expose myself to places filled with natural sources of energy.
Start Your Day Early and Make a Plan
Start your day early. The second solution is to make a plan for your life for the next day and work out that plan.
Put your efforts in the right direction so that you can fulfill that work the next day. It could be any activity that you are passionate about.
If you are passionate about music or work involving creativity, do it. There are many different activities that the soul wants to do. If you give the soul what it wants, your sense of achievement and your dopamine will be released through these activities.
When you expose yourself to these activities, you will come to know that it is much easier to sleep at night.
Look for Medical and Hormonal Conditions
Also look for medical conditions. Check whether you have hormonal changes in your system, menopause issues if you are female, or erectile dysfunction due to hormonal changes in your body that may not be letting you sleep.
There are many different dimensions to not getting sleep. If you do all that I ask you to do, you will get your circadian rhythm set, and you will be able to sleep at night.
Your Kundalini Is Individual and Specific to You
You need to know that Kundalini is extremely individual and specific to you. In the morning, you have to know exactly what your energy wants from life.
If you do not know, you can take my consultation, through which you will come to know what your Kundalini wants. Not everyone’s Kundalini wants the same thing.
Yes, freedom is one thing that Kundalini wants for all, but what kind of freedom she wants to achieve every day is a kind of energy signal that you need to learn from me. Once you know what your energy wants, it becomes much easier for you to do the things Kundalini asks for.
Experience the Adventure of Life
For me, exploring a fish pond may be my energy for that moment, and I take that adventure and enjoy everything I can through the experience. Soaking in sunlight, being in nature, looking at greenery, and observing different kinds of grasshoppers and insects give me the high of life and the adventure of life.
Automatically, your chest opens and you feel alive. All this is possible if you know exactly why Kundalini has come for you, and you will get a good night’s sleep when you accomplish all of this.
Each Day Is a New Day
Each day is a unique day. Each day is a new day. If you want to understand what your Kundalini wants, go ahead and book your consultation or come for physical projects with me and experience nature and everything that Kundalini wants to experience.
