Kundalini Yoga & Beyond
Six Saturday sessions from January through June
January 10, February 7, March 7, April 11, May 9, June 6.
Livestream or in-person at ITEA in Louisville, CO.
Course Description
Most everyone wants to improve, to be more of what they prefer and less of what they don’t. We long to expand, to “grow.”
Trouble is, it’s more fun to imagine it, than to change the attitudes and ways of thinking that might be called for to attain it. We don’t yet know how to make the process easy. It’s generally slow going.
Kartar and Jacob Rudolph, a Boulder teacher, put this course together so participants would have a chance to be very different people, have different ways of using their minds, different outlooks on life, with a sense of a personal guidance, and ways to slip into a more subtle sense of interacting with the earth and people.
You’ll use acupuncture meridian charts to understand how kundalini yoga works, learn a whole new way to approach meditation, find a new understanding of how to loosen the entanglements of stress by studying the biology of the brain, and a new way to use parts of the mind presently considered EXTRAsensory.
The course also includes a section on surrender and vulnerability, what Brene Brown calls the skill most likely to supercharge growing.
You’ll use a course workbook, several required texts, and multiple YouTube and Ted Talk videos.
The course format is 6 Saturday sessions, live or on Zoom, one a month starting January 10. Each session is 6 hours, including a lunch break.
All sessions are recorded. Between course dates, small groups meet on Zoom.

The Themes
Session 1. Orientation and Subtle Energy
Core idea: There is already a path. Life has an intrinsic order and intelligence that can be sensed through subtle awareness.
Guiding question: What if everything you need to find your way is already inside you?
Session 2. Daily Practice and Breath
Core idea: Practice is the bridge between intention and embodiment. The breath is the thread that unites body, mind, and Spirit.
Guiding question: How does daily practice reorganize your inner and outer life?
Session 3. Surrender and Transformation
Core idea: Vulnerability is the gateway to transformation. Through surrender, we enter the field of the Infinite, which does the real work of transformation.
Guiding question: Where in your life are you willing to stop resisting and allow healing to happen?
Session 4. Mind and Sound
Core idea: The mind can create chaos or coherence. Sound organizes consciousness and can tune us to the architecture of the Soul.
Guiding question: What new patterns of thought and sound are you ready to resonate with?
Session 5. Intention and Love
Core idea: Love is alignment with the Source of all power. Intention directed from the heart harmonizes us with the Unified Field within which all life exists.
Guiding question: How can I align my will with All That Is and let love lead the way?
Session 6. Intuition and Integration
Core idea: The awakening mind perceives a deeper unity of all things. Simplicity, trust, and intuition will reveal that the whole is present in every part.
Guiding question: What simple truths will guide your practice and your life moving forward?
Expect rigorous challenge, new and sometimes counterintuitive information, support while you experiment with new ideas, growth, and becoming a different version of yourself.
