A few remarks before you begin. Each breath will be very slow
and even with breath retention in between. (Caution: Due to
breath retention, do not practice this technique if you have any
serious respiratory or heart problems, or practice without
retention.) When you are finished, lie down and relax with your
eyes closed and concentrate on harmony and balance in your
body and mind.

HELPFUL TECHNIQUES
While doing this pranayama to harmonize your breath to awaken
the Kundalini, it is also helpful to imagine positive emotions like
compassion, peace, joy and love. Imagine what these words
mean and feel that they are becoming a part of you. Inhale them.
Feel them deeply.
If you have any negative emotions like anger or self-indulgence,
imagine that you can exhale them out of your system as you do
this.
If you begin to feel something moving deep within you, allow it to
move slowly through you. Remain relaxed. As the energy of the
Kundalini rises in the Susumna (also called Sushmana Nadi) up to
the Crown Chakra (Sahasrara), you can feel it grow from
something small to something quite extraordinary. But I repeat
(ad nauseam!): there is no need to rush. Relax and take your
time and everything will be so much easier. This is true about
everything in life.
According to my teacher and to Kirpal Singh, Pranayam should
be done after answering the call of nature and after thorough
cleansing of the body. It should be practiced alone in a sitting
posture. (It is best to do near an open window to get fresh air into
your lungs.) Bathing is to be avoided immediately after such
exercises. (You want to keep the energy flowing without
disruption.) All practice is directed to driving the mind to its
source and to get it absorbed in Spirit.
