Just wanted to make a comment on self-pacing and the standard 20/20 recommendation. While I would never challenge a word from Yogani's mouth or pen, I found the 20 minutes of meditating in the morning and 20 minutes in the evening way too much. I now spend about 15 minutes in the morning in sambhavi and/or just observing and enjoying the flow of the energy, then 3 1/2 minutes of spinal breathing and 8 1/2 minutes plus in meditation on "I AM". I have an alarm set for 8 1/2 minutes, then continue beyond that until something tells me it's time to stop and rest. I have to rest for about ten minutes or the energy activity can intermittently become almost unbearably uncomfortable at different points during the day. Of course, I have done different things for different amounts of time over the 2 1/2 years I've been meditating after reading Yogani's book and asking for help on this forum, but changed what I'm doing over time because of the excellent input from this forum and "intuition" which I believe paralells the "Yoga Within".
All in all, just want all who undertake this extremely potent type of meditation to consider that self-pacing may, at different points in time, lead to necessary variations of the recommended 20/20. For me it took experimenting, input from those of you who are further down the path, and trusting in that sort of strange, inexplicable guidance that consistently intervenes and is almost too subtle to pin point.
Thanks for listening and for all of your posts. It's amazing how I seem to find the right thing at the right time when I keep up with your posts, so thank you all for that support!
