商品の説明

Amazonより

You may have years of yoga experience, but if it's limited primarily to the hatha style that's practiced most commonly in the West, musician-instructor Maya Fiennes' Kundalini Yoga to Detox and Destress may prove very surprising--and in very a good way. The London-based Fiennes describes kundalini as both "the mother of all yoga" and "among the easiest styles of yoga to learn" (not to mention a good way to "prepare for the Aquarian Age" that's coming in 2012, for those watching their calendars), a combination of movement, breath, and chanting designed to awaken, energize, and relax. That may all be true, but the contrast to the more familiar hatha style is striking. Where the latter usually concentrates on holding poses, gradually but subtly deepening them over the course of several long breaths, kundalini features almost constant movement; rapid side arm extensions and seated lifts and drops (a bit like jumping up and down on a trampoline from a seated position) are but two examples of the intense but highly enjoyable routines demonstrated here, and although the entire 60-minute program is done seated, on the back, or an all fours--there are no standing poses whatsoever--it's plenty strenuous enough to provide a good workout. Indeed, even pranayama work like the "breath of fire," featuring short, sharp, powerful inhalations and exhalations, is brisk and intense. Fiennes, who also supplied the rhythmic, pulsing music, offers explicit instructions and encouragement without being either frivolous or overly serious--a good balance, just like the practice itself. --Sam Graham

I have this video and recommend it to my clients. However, it is hard to find. This was a great price and was still in original packaging as stated by seller. Received quickly. Thank you.

5つ星のうち5.0 HATE exercise, I'm ALLERGIC but this is AMAZING

I had to come back and edit my comments. I need to begin with quite a few things.
1) I hate exercise and desperately needed to lose at LEAST five or more stone.
2) I had been struggling with weight issues combined with thyroid dysfunction (previous graves then to hypo) I had NO strength in (primarily) my legs, but also some in my arms. Despite using weights, resistance bands, exercise bike, power walks - I was having serious difficulty doing any type of work out - including many types of yoga.
3) I am a long-time devotee of Pilates. The only work out session I seemed to be able to do and would make a difference (absolutely!)
4) This sat on my table for 3 weeks - I eventually did it.

Here's what happened for the first few times...
First time I did this session I found it to be very simplistic (having never done Kundalini yoga before) but I found it MUCH preferred over the other styles of yoga I had tried. This is mostly seated (one set on the back for bridge pose - careful reps) and one other cat/cow (on hands and knees) to do leg extensions. The rest is seated and then at the very end 'deep relaxation.' The FIRST time I did this whole session (and managed to do it from beginning to end. IT WAS HARD - but REALLY GOOD.

I found that I put it off for about a week, and then tried it again. The next time, I found that if I DIDNT match her speed on some of the movements, I did OK!!! I can think back to WHEN I first began this journey how challenging it was DESPITE how very passive (and wonderful) this dvd is. Maya - is *amazing* and gifted teacher.

AFTER the first few times - I found myself wanting to do this more and more. I can now say that I have been doing this for about three years. In that time my fitness levels have changed *Drastically* - mind you - after SIX MONTHS of doing this (and walking here and there) - I dropped a dress size. Continued to work on better eating. But I began to crave different movement to balance/compliment my kundalini yoga sessions.

To me - this is NOT A WORK OUT but a *session* - it's a mind-body-heart and spirit expedition...
I require NO noise beyond my closed door..and most times I have the wall/fireplace going - having the room nice and warm really intensified the experience. Though be warned - toward the end when you're doing 'cat/cow' leg extensions - you may want to turn any heating off.

NOW - bear in mind - this was not THE SOLE reason why I have NOW LOST FIVE STONE.
I DID somehow manage to acquire a pinched sciatic nerve - which various poses in the Kundalini yoga seemed to aggrivate.
I managed to find a 'yoga for back pain' dvd ( copy and paste: Yoga To The Rescue - Back Pain [DVD] ) - which at first seems a bit daft but its about RETRAINING your body mechanics AND healing any lower back and hip problems. It took about 2-3 months before I could get back into the Kundalini yoga. I still had some problems, but I needed to find which poses/postures were aggravating my hips, pinched nerve and back.After another month I managed to isolate which were the culprits. I have modified some and eliminated one entirely (bridge pose reps - I do specific stretches from the back yoga dvd that time beautifully before the next transition).

With these things in mind - if you have a bad back - I strongly urge you to 1) either GET the Yoga To The Rescue - Back Pain [DVD] and LEARN the body mechanics. OR - just be careful in your movements and postures with Maya.

I like to do a gentle rocking back and forth in 'easy pose' (lotus) to get a good solid foundation and relax.
I like to rest my back and legs in-between - differently than how she shows (leaning back to the couch, gently extending my legs) - this is also a good opportunity to grab a nearby tissue to make sure your nose is clear. Kundalini yoga is a LOT about BREATHING through the nose. (if it's not clear - it's annoying! and embarassing ;) lol)

The other things I integrated with my journey -
Tai Chi, Tai Chi for weight loss by Scott Cole
Pilates (my old routine for the last 20 some odd years)
Power walks
Exercise bike with resistance bands wrapped around the handles

Mostly I would say I am a passive exerciser...lol
I DESPISE 'exercise' and having to beat myself to a sweaty pulp just to get results.

I now eat much better - not perfect! I still have pizza and nibble on biscuits or something. But I have learned the moderation trick! (portions and preparation makes for A LOT)

BUT - back to the DVD - when you are trying this for the first time. you will feel inclined to try and keep up. Relax...breathe and do your best - THAT IS ALL you need to do. I firmly believe that by the end of your first session you will feel *Good*

BE Careful with your posture - how you hold your core. And do not over extend beyond your own flexibility - just do what is *naturally* within your reach or comfort zone.

BE careful with going too far in 'range of motion' - hands to shoulders twisting side to side - breathing in to the left breathing out - to the right - it is VERY EASY to twist too far - make sure you create a SOLID base in easy pose - I also find that slightly lifting my legs helps to maintain this. --- you will find that there are potentially a few that may need modifications (or how many reps..if there are too many reps - then do it in 'half time'!!) but mind you this isn't all about 'repetitions' really.

What I have found is that the MORE you focus...and 'go within' - the LESS you are aware that you are INCREASING your fitness levels. Increasing oxygen levels. Flexibility, strength and stamina. It's non-existant in this session!! IFFFFFF you focus...and really attune yourself with the breathing.

I used to have to do this dvd with my eyes open through the entire session. Now for the most part, I do it - with my eyes closed.

By the time I finish - I am so......SO glad that I did it.
YES I moan some days I don't feel like doing anything - I just might not! But if I know it's been a few days I say GET OUT OF MY HEAD and just DO! JUST DO IT!!! REPEAT: GET OUT OF MY HEAD and JUST DO!!

Take this workout/session slowly, carefully and most importantly *mindfully* - it is a journey of a thousand steps in under an hour. but is SO thorough, and ultimately so wonderful - to me it's like stepping into a warm bath that gives a mind-body and soul massage...and the irony...being that I AM ALLERGIC To exercise :P I've gotten in a good hour of yoga. A lot of times I will finish doing a sequence I've created FROM the back yoga dvd - this is to help maintain the work I've achieved (which winds up being anywhere from an additional 20-45 mins after the Kundalini yoga).

Maya is a very gifted and generous teacher. Just relax and go with it. If it gets too difficult, slow down (mind you it's not fast - at all, you'd have to get it to understand what I mean). Also you may want to try looking it up on YouTube to see if you can get a good preview.

I love - this dvd - very much. It has changed my life. I've not only lost 5 stone and then some, but am *still going*
This dvd is a TOP PRIORITY above ANYTHING Else in my 'fitness' endeavors.

IF YOU ARE LOOKING TO THIS DVD FOR WEIGHT LOSS - it can be a start. But don't expect miracles, get lost in the beauty of the experience!!! Once I let go of 'all things' and dove in head on, before I knew it - I'd dropped that dress size.

IF YOU ARE LOOKING TO DESTRESS......this really can release... A LOT. but again - just relax - focux, go with it.

Do not expect miracles from any 'dvd' - you - and you alone are the one who makes the decision to do - or not to do. And how much you put into it. -- this...to me, requires - that you take EVERYTHING out of your head and FOCUS.....on what you're doing. IF YOU DO this you will reap the benefits of this session...and the more you do it - the more amazing and euphoric it becomes!

I do not practice the 'kunalini yoga faith' per se. But the imagery and mantras used are powerful and resonating.
LASTLY - now nearly three years later, I am subtly surprised that the session is OVER because I was fully integrated with my session.

It's *wonderful* - but do be careful with your positions, range of motion, etc. Best of wishes!!
