The change in my breathing~ IE Experience

“After completing Inner Engineering, one good thing I have noticed in me is that when I get any problem I used to be very tense and worried or depressed. But now, I am able to handle it with clarity, and even sometimes when I look at the problem I laugh instead of feeling stress. I am able to manage my work in the given time with a proper plan and organizing the work schedule. I could really make out the best food practice suitable for my body. With the Practice of Shambhavi Mahamudra, I could see a tremendous change in my breathing.

Earlier I used to have nasal congestion in the early morning during winter, but now I am able to breathe properly.Some times, my mind says ‘skip the practice for today’, but my body will automatically go and sit in the posture, because body already came to know that it is very comfortable and feeling light and at ease after doing the Shambhavi Mahamudra.” –

40 days of Shambhavi Maha Mudra Kriya

I have completed 40 days of practicing Shambhavi Maha Mudra Kriya twice a day, and in this post, I would like to share with you my experience of it so far. But first, let’s start at the beginning. At the end of September, I attended Inner Engineering, a course conducted by Sadhguru’s Isha foundation. I have been following Sadhguru for the last few years. I have completed inner engineering online (this is not a pre-requisite for the teacher-led program) and also the Hata Yoga Surya Kriya program ( you can read about my experience here) . My husband has also been practicing for the last two years, so the prospect of taking this course was not new to me, and yet, everything was. This blog post isn’t to share much about the specific events of the program, the teachings, the exercises, the schedule or the initiation to the kriya itself. I truly believe it is something you need to experience for yourself. Words can only take you so far, and besides...

Amazing health benefits ~ Notes from California

Jennifer Lomboy, an Isha meditator from California shares her experience of Inner Engineering and the amazing health changes she experienced. Just over one and a half years ago, I found fibroid tumors in my uterus, so many they formed the size of a grapefruit. Because of the size and location of tumors, it created great discomfort and started to interfere with my lifestyle and drastically limited my activities. I had become anemic and weakened by the heavy menstrual bleeding caused by this condition that at one point, I even passed out. Adding to the complications, was the tumors seemed to be growing rapidly. The timing of finding all this out was that it came 3 months after going to a talk one day in West Los Angeles by Sadhguru about the “ Inner Engineering ” program. What started off as a text from my friend with the words “Do you know a man called Sadhguru?” ended up leading to the day that changed my life, and I became ...
