Advanced Pranayama & Kundalini Awakening
A transformative 28-day master study exploring spontaneous breath cessation (Kevala Kumbhaka), Maha Bandha, Mudras, and deep meditative absorption (Samadhi).
Beyond Technique: Spontaneous Stillness & Kevala Kumbhaka
At the highest levels of classical Hatha Yoga, breath and mind dissolve into absolute stillness. Kevala Kumbhaka is the effortless, spontaneous pause of the breath that arises when the mind becomes completely serene and the nadis are thoroughly purified.
In this advanced immersion, you will work with Maha Bandha (the great lock), Maha Vedha, Shambhavi and Khechari Mudras, and advanced Shatkarmas to channel Prana directly into the central Sushumna channel.
This program is strictly curated for seasoned practitioners seeking self-realization, emotional transcendence, and master-level teaching mastery.
