Kundalini
The primal energy of transformation and evolution.

The kundalini is the primal force of evolution.  Yogic literature describes it as an energy lying at the base of the spine, coiled up like a snake. While it is dormant, we are at the mercy of our karmas – all the sickness and traumas that are stored in our energetic body. Most people live their life in a predictable path, living out the patterns inherited from their family, culture and past karmic lives, unable to break free. These patterns are manifested in the physical body as a blockage-- a tightness or rigidity.  The kundalini vibrates, unwinds and works through these blockages.  Knowledge of the kundalini has been passed down three ways-- through sacred texts, oral transmission from a teacher and direct energetic transmission. Whichever way it has been transmitted,  the knowledge has to be understood through personal experience.  Teachers and mentors are very important on this path, but you can’t learn ABOUT it from them.  It has to be directly experienced.  

Mediumship
The embodiment of energy for healing.

The spirit world exists parallel to and interwoven with our every day life. The door to the spirit world feels closed for for most people in our modern fragmented society, but this is a recent phenomenon. This door can open when doing deep healing work or after a trauma. Beyond this door are archetypal energies-- hidden shadow parts along with other beings that we can’t usually access in everyday reality. The opening of this door can be a painful process, as the parts of our selves we’d rather not see start to bubble up to the surface of our awareness. These shadow parts are actually aspects of our higher self or divine self, but as long as they are buried within our unhealed traumas we experience them as a negative part of ourselves.   Our culture reinforces the pattern of disconnecting and dissociating from these parts.  This only pushes them deeper into our unconscious, and pushes us further from seeing the divine self hidden inside them.  Mediumship means embodying these hidden parts in order to transform darkness into spirit. All the gods and demons from our spiritual traditions can be understood and experienced as aspects of ourselves that are calling out for integration and embodiment.

“The only way through is in. But the magic comes with the spirit. Once you go into it and surrender to the process, the spirit actually transforms our wounds. And that thing that was your enemy becomes a source of power and strength.”
