Find your comfortable seat.
Work a little bit with Mula Banda today.
So for a lot of people,
One of the tricks working with Mula Banda is to do it in a way that moves energy up and gets us in touch with that sort of power we have innately without ungrounding us.
So that's very different for different people.
So for a few minutes,
We'll play with it.
You're getting in touch with Mula Banda as you slowly close your eyes.
Ideally,
Your mind's eye is seated along that central channel.
So to find that,
We do some spine breaths.
So let's start there.
So inhale down the front of your spine,
Whatever that means to you through the center of your body,
And then nice,
Long,
Slow exhales,
And follow that breath straight up out the top of your head.
So let's spend just a minute or two doing that.
As you continue with this breath,
As you breathe in and get sort of the bottom of your breath,
See if you can locate where your mind's eye wants to land.
So one way to find Mula Banda is to find the energetic center at the base of your body.
As you get sort of near that pelvic floor area,
See where your mind sort of easily gravitates to.
You can be also in the front of your sacrum.
And one option would be to stay right here,
Just breathing and finding that center.
And another option would be to notice as your mind lands in that center.
There's this kind of natural,
Powerful,
Upward moving energy or sort of awareness.
Your mind can look at that a lot of different ways.
You might feel it right at that Mula Banda.
You might feel a little more as you breathe out and follow it up the lower part of your spine or the lower part of your body.
But if we investigate,
A lot of the times,
We'll feel this upward motion.
And our job is to not get it in its way.
So as we sit here for a few minutes,
Your breathing can be either natural or you can slightly enhance it by breathing in and out on purpose.
Just gonna investigate that upward moving sense.
And nothing else to do but that.
And if that investigation takes you anywhere else along that central channel,
Like further up,
For instance,
That's fine too.
Okay.
Okay.
Okay.
Next time you breathe in,
Take a long,
Slow,
Deep breath into your belly.
And even a longer,
Slower breath out.
A few more breaths like that.
Nice,
Long,
Slow,
Deep breath in.
A few more breaths like that.
Nice,
Long,
Slow,
Deep breath out.
Two more breaths like that.
Long,
Slow breath in.
Long,
Slow breath out.
And then we'll allow the eyes to open halfway and take two more breaths like that.
Bring yourself back into the room,
Open your eyes and take two long,
Slow breaths in and out.
