 Celestial Communications

Celestial Communications are Simple movements that reduce stress and integrate the body map.

Celestial Communications quotes from Yogi Bhajan:

"I would like to leave on record, to share with you, that this is the best present I can give to your generations. From that present onward your generations shall benefit from it. You will have something to pass on to those who follow you. But you have to practice it, experience it, understand it and share it."

"This Celestial Communications which you will do is extremely effective in every part of your being."

"Celestial Communications is the greatest wonder food for healing the body, mental intelligence, creativity and to uplift the soul and increase the inflow of spirit. It is a very simple, very authentic, most ancient and - at the same time - an absolutely super modern way of making the dumbest, the dullest, and the most boring person very creative, productive, and intelligent."

"Because you are in the body rhythm of the body language as well as the mental activity to support that, naturally the spirit has to pull its entire weight because you seek success. And meditative success is the highest stage a man can achieve for happiness."

 

Mental Exercises Kriya (aka A Woman's Movement Therapy)

As Taught by Yogi Bhajan, July 4, 1986

Yogi Bhajan quote for this set: "This will rid you of mental bankruptcy. ... Assess how light, happy and good you feel. People have worked one thousand years to figure this out."

There are 8 postures that you move through. Put yourself into it completely and merge with the movement like a play you are acting out. Be your Own Actor in Your Own Play. Be very present with each posture and emotional state.

There are 2 primary benefits: it clears debris and bubbles. Debris is what is left over after thoughts and feelings are processed. They create doubt and conflict, disempowering and confusing you, thereby making you hesitate. The bubbles are gaps or spaces that give a sense of emptiness, disconnection, and is the foundation for cold depression.

This movement therapy creates Happiness through emotional clarity that puts your soul in charge.

People report that it really makes them feel great and others ask them what they are doing because they seem so much happier. Enjoy!!

Sit in Easy Pose with a straight spine with neck and head aligned to start and for positions 1, 2, 4, 6, and 8. Positions 3, 5 and 7 require some leaning. The easy way to flow with it is to follow this simple memory jogger sequence -- front looking to side, look straight ahead, lean right, come center, lean left, come center slapping, cock head to right looking up and left, open straight ahead to welcome God.

It is most effective when you use Singh Kaur's Rakhe Rakhanhar CD (available below for your convenience) for at least 11 minutes, the full 27 or 31 minutes is better and 62 is minutes very nice. Yogi Bhajan gave it for 1 hour and 45 minutes and said the effects will be felt over the following 5 hours.

Sing along and match the sound current as close as you can. It is a blessing to make a mistake, it is opening new paths across the brain.

Smile and keep up.
