What should I wear to a Kundalini Yoga class?

How long should I wait after I have eaten to practice Kundalini Yoga?
It is good to wait two to three hours after eating before you practice yoga and meditation. This will help you gain the maximum benefits, plus it is easier to exercise on an empty stomach. If you must eat, have something light, like fruit.

Why do we use mudras (hand positions) in Kundalini Yoga?
The ancient yogis mapped out the areas of the hand and identified the parts of the body or brain associated with each area. Each area of the hand also represents different emotions or behaviours; curling, crossing, stretching or touching the fingers or fingertips in specific configurations is a yogic technique for communicating with the body and mind. Clinical research has shown that use of mudras increases the plasticity of brain function leading to increased physical coordination and greater mental alertness.

What are mantras?
Mantras are sounds or words that help you to gain greater control of your own mind. Man means mind and Tra is the wave or movement of the mind.

Why do we recite mantras in Kundalini Yoga?
When you pronounce mantras in the vibratory language of Sanskrit, you are pressing meridian points on the roof of the mouth with the tongue (like sending keyboard code into a computer). This code is sent to the hypothalumus which in turn sends it to your pineal and pituitary glands. Your glands chemically interpret these messages to bring about certain changes: breaking bad habits, cleansing the garbage stored in the subconscious mind, creating new more positive life habits and attitudes.

What makes Kundalini Yoga so effective?
Kundalini Yoga is known as the yoga of angles and triangles. The use of angles in Kundalini Yoga postures, in combination with pranayama (breath work), mantras and mudras, is one of the main reasons that Kundalini Yoga works as quickly and effectively as it does. The angles put pressure on the glands to secrete. When a posture is released and the body is still (relaxation), the glandular secretions that have been stimulated have an opportunity to circulate freely. The result is a balanced glandular system that has a definitive effect on your emotional stability through the chemistry of your body.
