Hello everyone,
I'm a big fan of yoga and buddhism books and have also bought almost all of the Yogani books. I've been wanting to start my own routine of yoga for a long time now, but many books just sound like mumbo jumbo to me so they aren't any real help. So I'm convinced that Yogani is the way to go, but I have a few questions.
So I want to begin doing the things Yogani teaches. My first problem is that I take medicines everyday (anti-depressiva) and I hear that some people get negative emotions or feelings during meditation, and that scares me off a bit. And the negative stories of kundalini aren't helping either. I have no clue on how to handle the practice
I am a smoker planning to quit (like everyone else *wink*) and thus am quite confused if pranayama or spinal breathing would be a wise thing to do since your working with the lungs.
So far the only thing I can think of is doing what is in the Yogani book "Bhakti and Karma". Since if I'm correct is selfless service.
I do really want to start a serious daily practice, but I want to do it as safe as possible. Does anyone have tips, advice or maybe even a schedule. Which book to read first or where to start?
Any help is greatly appreciated,
Namaste,
Kevin
