Sheepskins
Through the ages, yogis have used animal skins to sit on during yoga and meditation. In Kundalini Yoga, it is recommended not to use
synthetic or plastic materials to sit on as they interfere with the energy and block your aura’s expansion. Sheepskins are used widely in
the medical community for the non-allergenic properties. Our sheepskins provide a soft, supportive area to comfortably practice yoga
and meditation.

This sheep skin is great for yoga
and travel. It is sheared short for

It rolls small for when you are on
the move and serves as a traveling
altar with all your good vibrations
from previous meditations!
This sheep skin is great for
yoga and is soft and cushy for
the ankles when meditating.
Yogis have been sitting on
animal skins for centuries,
including Lord Shiva and Baba
Siri Chand, Guru Nanak’s son.

Tuning-In To Musicians
Snatam Kaur
Can you tell us about your new Meditations for Transformation series?
Over the years, people at concerts would ask me to recommend chants to help
them. I would write instructions on napkins and slips of paper, sharing what I
learned from Yogi Bhajan that if you practice a meditation every day for 40 days,
it can help to break a bad habit. If you practice for 90 days, it can create a good
habit. If you practice for 1000 days, you can obtain mastery. I’m really excited
now to have the Meditations for Transformation Series so I can offer these to
people. I really believe that real transformation comes from daily practice –
when it’s just between you and God.
During concerts, the collective energy creates a really beautiful transformation,
but I’m also very committed to the inner peace movement where each one of
us takes responsibility in our lives to really cultivate peace with ourselves, our
families and our communities. The most effective way for me has been through
practicing these sacred meditations as given by Yogi Bhajan, so I’m really excited
to be able to help get his teachings out there and to give people tools for their
everyday practice.
YOGI TIP
Meditation to practice with the
Tantric Wahe Guru mantra
Sit in easy pose, with a straight spine,
and slightly tuck the chin in. With the
elbows straight bring the hands into
Gyan Mudra. Gyan Mudra is where
the Jupiter finger touches the thumb
and the elbows are straight with the
hands resting on the knees. Focus
the eyes at the tip of the nose. Sit in
silence and breathe long and deep as
you listen to the mantra. Let your
worries and cares go, and be present
with your breath. Meditate. This
meditation can be practiced for
11-31 minutes. When you have finished
the meditation, take a deep breath
and hold the breath for 20-30 seconds.
Merge with God. Then relax the breath.
Have you had a personal experience with the Tantric Wahe Guru meditation?
At Summer Solstice about 6 years ago, we were meditating to that track and
doing long deep breathing, Yogi Bhajan instructed us to connect with the
courage of an eagle and to soar in the sky. I always remember to connect
to my inner courage when I’m meditating with this track. Wahe Guru means
Ecstatic is the Experience of God – and for me, it confirms that God is
everywhere and that God is taking care of me.
What music have you been listening to lately?
Crimson Vol 1. by Singh Kaur
I listen to this album all the time. Singh Kaur’s voice communicates such
purity and grace.
Pure Ganesh by GuruGanesha Singh
When GuruGanesha and Krishan were working on this album, there was so
much creativity flowing. It came out so joyful and with so much love.
Soul in Wonder by Miten with Deva Premal
I love mantras, but it’s nice to connect spiritually with English songs. This
album has a lot of beautiful tracks.
Har Ji by Ram Singh
Really soothing beautiful mantras and nice classical guitar. I like to meditate
with the CD and relax in the evening.
The Journey Home by Gurunam Singh
We listened to this album on this whole tour – it’s so fun and uplifting . When
the going got tough, it felt like Gurunam was with us on tour saying “Come on
guys, keep up, be strong.”
Aquarian by Nirinjan Kaur
I just love her voice – I could listen to it all day. It’s so beautiful and pure.
I’m looking forward to her next album.

GuruGanesha Singh
GuruGanesha Singh is an icon of the yoga music genre. A musician deeply
devoted to both his craft and the greater landscape of sacred sound,
GuruGanesha continues to make a tremendous contribution to Sacred Music.
His solo records and work with Snatam Kaur consistently top New Age charts
and receive high critical acclaim from magazine reviewers in both New Age
and Yoga publications. GuruGanesha Singh performs over a hundred concerts
each year and his unmitigated joy and virtuoso guitar work make him an instant
favorite with the audiences around the world.
Can you share the story behind the Hari Om
chant from your new CD, “Joy is Now”?
In 1974, Yogi Bhajan arranged a lunch for Swami
Satchidanda and his community in Georgetown.
During this special meeting, Yogi Bhajan told
me to put together a chant with sacred words
from both of our traditions. I quickly came up
with this melody, and began chanting it. Soon,
musicians from both groups joined in, and we
chanted our hearts out. After about 30 minutes
of chanting, I signaled the musicians to finish the chant, and Yogiji waved his
arms at us to keep going. The next time we tried to stop, Swamiji signaled for
us to keep going. They wouldn’t let us stop. After about 2 ½ hours, everyone
spontaneously stopped chanting at the exact same moment with no cue of any
kind. In the silence, a booming belly laugh roared through the room, and I saw
both Yogiji and Swamiji laughing a deep laugh, looking at each other as though
they had accomplished exactly what they had set out to achieve for the day.
When I chant Hari Om, I am always taken back to that day.
Is there a special meditation you can share that has really helped you?
Chanting to Guru Ram Das has been the most impactful meditative tool I’ve
used in my life. Guru Ram Das represents a depth of humility and selflessness
that I strive for in my life. He used to disguise himself and do seva anonymously
in the middle of the night for the neediest people in the streets of Amritsar.
When I chant to Guru Ram Das, I connect with the humblest part of myself.
It is important when you’re getting big audiences and
standing ovations to maintain the humility that the
darshan that is being extended through you is not you.
YOGI TIP
Guru Guru Wahe Guru
Guru Ram Das Guru Meditation
Instruction: Sit in easy pose, with a
straight spine, and slightly tuck the
chin in. With the elbows straight
bring the hands into Gyan Mudra.
Gyan Mudra is where the Jupiter
finger touches the thumb and the
elbows are straight as seen in the
picture, with the hands resting on the
knees. Close the eyes, and focus the
eyes at the third eye point (the point
in between the eyebrows) and chant
for 11-31 minutes.

Grace by Snatam Kaur
There’s a lot I love about this album, but I really bliss out
when I meditate with the Ray Man track.
Songs for the Inner Lover by Miten with Deva Premal
There is So Much Magnificence is an amazing track.
When Premal and Miten perform it in person, the depths
of connection between the male and female energies are
so powerful, like waves of the ocean. This album has a
wonderful late 60’s/early 70’s vibe.
Game of Chants by Guru Singh with Seal and Friends
I love the absolute total joy in this album. I love hearing
Guru Singh’s heart and soul, love the raw energy that Seal
brings to the album. This was a seminal album in the early
days of Spirit Voyage. It delivered the message that Spirit
Voyage had arrived as a label.
(From Snatam Kaur’s Meditations for
Transformation: Connect & Heal)
“Guru Ram Das is a very, very active Guru.
You don’t have to be afraid.
If you want to work miracles, just let him
work. He always comes through.”

Deva Premal
Can you share a mantra that you have used and how it has had
an impact on you?
For me, the Gayatri Mantra has been my guiding
light. It was given to me by my father before
I was born and chanted during my birth as a
welcome to the world. As a child I sang it every
night as my evening prayer. So it is deep inside
of me, or maybe I should say, a part of me.
What makes it all the more precious to me is
that I sang it to my father 3 years ago, as he was
leaving his body. This completed a cycle for both
of us.
The Gayatri Mantra actually gave me my voice. Before I reconnected with it, I
was singing with Miten for many years, as second voice. There was so much
shyness and I felt I didn’t have the voice to sing alone. When I rediscovered
the Gayatri Mantra, I began to sing alone without shyness. I realized that the
mantra is touching people the same way it touches me. I had found “my song”
and that led me to going deeper and deeper into my singing voice and the
sacred world of Mantras. That seed of the Gayatri was planted as I entered
this incarnation and when the right season came, the flowers blossomed!
I once heard my guruji, Osho, say:
“The word mantra is untranslatable in
English, in any Western language, but
its meaning, its significance, can be
explained to you. A mantra is not just
something to chant. It is not chanting.
A mantra is something to let sink
deep in your being, just as roots go
deep into the earth. The deeper the
roots go into the earth, the higher the
tree will go into the sky. A mantra is
something like a seed to be allowed
to go deep into your being so that it
can send its roots to the sources of
your life and finally to the universal
life. Then its branches, its foliage will
go high into the sky, and when the
right time comes, when the spring
comes, it will be filled with thousands
of flowers.”
(The Gayathri Mantra was recorded on Deva Premal’s albums “The Essence”
and “Satsang”)
Can you tell us what inspired you to record Aad Guray Nameh?
When we were in Trinidad for a concert, some years ago, the concert
organizer, Marilyn, played us Aad Guray Nameh. She told me that she had a
feeling I should sing this mantra. It was the first time that I heard of Snatam. I
immediately loved her voice and the feeling of purity and strength I feel within
her. Pretty soon afterwards Miten and I started singing it in our concerts and
everyone who heard it was touched by it - just like we had been.
Other than a desire to share the mantra, there was no real need to record it, as
Snatam¹s version is so beautiful in itself. But I was so full of it and the devotion
to Osho that it inspired in me, that I had to ask her blessings to record it myself!
She gave them graciously. Recording it was very special, like a wave of love
flowed through the studio. We even sent the tapes to India to have a whole
Indian string orchestra on it! I love the Indian way of playing the violins.
And ever since, we have played Aad Guray Nameh in just
about every concert. We love to encourage the audience to
bring their own guru and spiritual path into the gathering as
they sing this prayer with us. I just get blissed out singing
it! No words! (Aad Guray Nameh was recorded on Deva
Premal’s album Dakshina)

Gurunam Singh
Gurunam’s heart led him to music and a spiritual path at the same time. At 22,
he found Yogi Bhajan and began learning about Kundalini yoga, lifestyle, and
mantra. The deep resonance of his voice carried him from a solitary musical
practice to playing for the community.
Can you share the inspiration behind your new CD The Journey Home?
Late one night when I was washing dishes in
Yogi Bhajan’s kitchen, he walked through and
called me “singer boy”. After that, I started
having dreams of Yogi Bhajan sitting with
me while I played my guitar and chanted, he
would say things like, “That mantra is perfect
for a CD. It just needs harmonies.” Then
he would sing harmonies that I would later
use. When you get a visit from Yogi Bhajan,
dream or not, it is more real than real, and the
fragrance of Yogi Bhajan lingers with you upon waking. This was, and still is,
such a blessing in my life. The teachings of Yogi Bhajan have sustained me for
years. Rising early, praying and meditating on God’s name. So this CD, The
Journey Home, is just about that, the Journey of the soul back into the arms
of the beloved. I pray “The Journey Home” helps to ease, uplift and extend
people through depths and heights, in finding personal joy and happiness.
Do you have any special meditation experiences you can share with us?
In 1997, in one of my first classes with Yogi Bhajan, he gave us a meditation
for conquering the self. As we did the meditation, he stopped the class and
said that someone in the room was doing it perfectly. I was in quite an altered
state, and when he asked me to demonstrate for the class, I was unusually
calm. Yogi Bhajan helped me to go deep into the meditation that day with his
energy. I was new in the Espanola community and I think he wanted me to
feel at home, ever compassionate as he was, calling me son.
My mind goes blank when I do this meditation. I feel like I become transparent,
like the walls around me are transparent. I project beyond the walls, through
the walls. I get lost in the focus, beyond what I see, and I get absorbed in the
breath. It really brings me to another place. For only 3 minutes, it is quite a
blessing to touch infinity.

as well as private classes and indepth workshops on Raaga and Gurbani Kirtan.
Can you share the inspiration behind your new CD Ignite Your Light?
Last November, we invited the musician and
Violinist, Ferenz Kallos, to accompany our mantra
jam band playing live at a Group Sadhana for the
Teacher Training group at Golden Bridge Yoga NYC.
It was 5am and the room was dark with only the light
of a few candles when Ferenz walked in. As we
started our meditations, the beautiful tones of his
violin started wrapping around our notes and lifting
the group.
YOGI TIP
Meditation:
Ra Ma Da Sa, Sa Se So Hung
Mantra to Heal Self and Others
Sit in easy pose, elbows in snug by
the sides of the ribs, forearms against
the upper arms, fingers together and
pulled down and out so that the palms
are parallel with and facing the ceiling.
Close your eyes nine-tenths.
To heal yourself imagine a glowing
light around yourself as you meditate.
Or, to heal someone else, imagine
that same light around them.
Music for this meditation can be found
on Sat Kirin’s album, “Ra Ma Da Sa Sa
Se So Hung”
It was musical love at first sound. Not only was Ferenz a talented musician,
but I discovered he also composed and produced music for a well known New
York yoga teacher whose music I am very familiar with. My creative flow
started to kick in, and we started discussing a CD project. I had been doing
some daily meditations that I wanted to share - Guru Deva, and the Pavana
mantra that I had been working on for months. The Wahe Guru track grew out
of my love for all the people that work in my realm but do not meditate. It is
such an easy meditation and you do not have to sing. A new CD was born.
This time with electronic music, club dance rythms, and angelic high pitched
vocals in Western Classical style.
I love the upbeat dance music and feel the sound can catch the interest and
ear of a different listening audience. Bach influences are also present as Ferenz
is a lover of Bach. I dedicate this CD to all my work associates, friends and
family who are not doing meditation. Now, they have no excuse.
What is a meditation that has really transformed you?
My favorite meditation for every day is morning call or LONG EK ONG KAR.
It seems to always bring me into focus and opens up my intuitive flow in a
relatively short time which is really necessary for starting my day (after my Jap
Ji and Yoga of course). I do it for 7 minutes daily, ideally as part of Aquarian
Sadhana and it really sets me into the proper channel of mind.
(You can find long ek ong kar’s on Sat Kirin’s sadhana CD Melody and Majesty)
Sat Kirin Recommends:
For happy listening Dance of Shakti by Prem Joshua
For doing Yoga: I love my Jaap and Mangala Charan.
They always keep me going with the rythyms, so I don’t fink out and quit
because I am alone and no one is keeping time but me. They automatically
“beam me in” to my neutral mind space.

Gurmukh
Since being baptized 35 years ago with the Sikh spiritual name
meaning “One who helps people across the world ocean,”
Gurmukh has dedicated her life to fulfilling her namesake.
Gurmukh is the co-founder and director of Golden Bridge, Los
Angeles’ premier center for the study and practice of Kundalini
Yoga and Meditation. For nearly three decades, students in Los
Angeles and from around the world have sought out her classes
in Kundalini Yoga, meditation, and pre-and post-natal care.
Can you tell us about the most inspiring/moving place you’ve traveled to
teach Kundalini Yoga? What about it had a powerful impact on you?
I’ve been to so many places with so many memories and they all had their
light and impact on all of us spiritually. However, two places come to mind.
When I taught in Tibet, at Lake Mansarovar, with an elevation of almost
15,000 feet, it was a real challenge for everyone: to stay with breath, to
remember to become fearless in spite of the lack of oxygen. That was a
really exciting and unique teaching.
The other place was on the far northeast corner of India in Tawang, at an
orphanage, teaching about 150 Tibetan Buddhist orphan children outdoors.
It was raining and muddy and squishy and nothing stopped their energy, their
delight, their laughter. When we came to chant, we all sat in the rain to chant
Om Mani Padmi Om with children ranging from 4 to 18 years old. That was
definitely a unique highlight. It brought tears to my eyes to see the innocence
of these children. They live in an orphanage for which we help to raise money,
so they can have proper health care and decent living conditions. If anyone
deserves this, it’s these children. The orphanage is directed by Lama Thupten
Phuntsok, a very great soul. If you want to know more about it, visit their

Kundalini Yoga Meditation
Four Stroke Breath to Build Intuition
Is there a special meditation that you would like to share?
Bring your hands together in “Prayer
Mudra” - hands are clasped together
with interlocked fingers and the index
(Jupiter) fingers extend pointing to the
sky. Thumbs are crossed.
The meditation I will give you is from one of our Level II courses. It opens
intuition. It is a four stroke inhale through the mouth, close the mouth and
exhale through the nose. Anyone can do it. It helps everyone. In 16 minutes
you can understand your life, you can understand your tomorrows. It is one of
the most important meditations that Yogi Bhajan has given us.
Keep your eyes closed nine-tenths.
Sitting in a comfortable seated position,
bring the hands in prayer mudra just
below the nose so that the tips of the
index fingers can be seen through the
one tenth opening of the eyes.
Gurmukh Recommends
Create an “O” with your mouth and
inhale through the mouth in four
powerful strokes. The pace should be
1 inhale stroke per second, 4 seconds
for the complete inhale. Exhale through
the nose in a single powerful stroke.
Snatam Kaur
Anything she’s done. The Live Concert
album is great!
Deva Premal & Miten
Anything from them. I adore them.
Nustrat Fateh Ali Khan
I adore his style.

You can really work your diaphragm on
this one - feel your chakras opening.
Continue meditation for 16 minutes.
After 16 minutes inhale deeply, sit
up straight, hold the breath for 20
seconds and stretch your arms out
to the side, parallel to the floor with
your palms facing upwards. Exhale
completely. Repeat two more times
and on the last round extend your
fingers - strong as steel - squeezing
all of your energy through your arms.
Exhale and relax.

You have the most comprehensive collection of
DVDs for Kundalini Yoga on the market today.
How did you first discover Kundalini Yoga and
what is your favorite thing about teaching?
I first discovered Kundalini Yoga at a class in
Eugene Oregon in 1971. The experience was so
powerful that I decided to be a teacher of Kundalini
Yoga during that class itself. I met Yogi Bhajan two
weeks later and was convinced that I had found
my life’s path.
My favorite moment in teaching a class is while the students are relaxing, I can
meditate and send blessings to them in that safe and cozy environment.
Can you share a meditation/kriya with our readers that has really helped you,
give instructions, and share a story about how it has impacted your life?
I am always in the midst of one or two 40, 90 or 1000 day Sadhanas and I
really love each one that I am doing or have completed. Actually, many of the
kriyas on my DVD’s rank among my favorites. I really enjoy sharing what has
helped me the most.
YOGI TIP
Meditation For Silent Clearing
(Bifurcated Kirtan Kriya)
Mantra: Sa a, Ta a, Na a, Ma a.
Translation: Infinity, Life, Death, Rebirth
Time: No time limitations are associated
with this meditation.
Physical Position: Sit in any position
that you like. Eyes are gently closed
and focused at the brow point
Instruction: This is a silent meditation
that involves feeling or visualizing
energy movement along the path
of the “Golden Cord.” This is the
energetic pathway and connection
between the pituitary and pineal gland
in the head. You mentally bring the Sa
(and subsequently the Ta, Na, and Ma)
sound in through the top center of
your head. You then project the extra
“a” sound out your brow point. The
“a” is pronounced like a short “u”
as in “cut.” In your imagination, feel
or see the energy moving. Breath is
relaxed. When the mind wanders, you
can bring it back to mantra and the
movement of the energy.
Here is a good story. Yogi Bhajan was in Anchorage to teach White Tantric
Yoga...which, by the way, is probably my most favorite meditative activity. He
was sitting next to me and I was driving. We were talking about meditation, and
he taught me this meditation as I was rounding a corner. I distinctly remember
glancing at him and glancing at the road rapidly. I did not want to crash and
I did not want to miss the instruction! Yogi Bhajan was always inspiring,
instructing and teaching whenever you were with him. He called this kriya,
“Bifurcated Kirtan Kriya.”
This event took place well over 20 years ago but it is still a kriya that I practice
every week.
Yogi Bhajan, the Master of Kundalini Yoga, taught me this meditation personally.
At the time he said that it carried the power of the splitting of the atom. My
experience is that it is a wonderful clearing meditation by itself. It is also
wonderful to practice it after another meditation when you are in a relaxed and
still state. It can help you to extend that lovely peaceful space.
What are some of your favorite chant / meditation albums to listen to and
meditate with?
Most played…Snatam Live. This CD is incredible. The musicianship..Snatams’
voice, Guru Ganesha’s guitar, tablas, clarinet are so professional and at the
same time so relaxed and easy. I think that their beings are transmitted in the
music and they are beautiful!
Favorite musicians…Snatam Kaur, Singh Kaur, Sat Kirn Kaur, Sat Kartar Kaur,
Gurushabd Singh, Sada Sat Kaur, Charhdi Kalaa Jatha, Tarn Taran Singh and
Sat Purkh.
To End: Inhale deeply, briefly hold,
then relax.

Your most recent DVD, Awakening Intuition for Women, is obviously
geared towards women. Kundalini Yoga often goes way beyond just
the yoga and into lifestyle to help practitioners improve their health and
well-being. Do you have any yogic lifestyle tips that women should know
more about?
Eating right is so important. Yogi Bhajan taught
us to eat and drink specific things during our
menstrual cycles. Ginger tea with honey is ideal
for cramps. You can use the Yogi Tea Ginger Tea,
or you can boil fresh ginger in water for about
25 minutes and then add honey. Also, when
a woman is menstruating, she loses a lot of
minerals. Yogi Bhajan gave us a recipe of sautéed
Ginger and Almonds to help the body maintain
mineral levels.
Do you have any special meditation
experiences you can share with us?
18 years ago, I asked Yogi Bhajan to give me a 1000-day
meditation. He told me to do Sodarshan Chakra Kriya. I
tried it and hated it, so I stopped doing it. After 3 months,
I went back and asked for another 1000-day meditation. He
gave me the same one. This time, I stuck with it. I soon
realized how incredible it was. As I meditated, the internal
repetition of Wahe Guru would just clear out my crap. It
was so powerful, I kept doing it. I’ve now been doing it
every day for 18 years.
(Instructions on Sodarshan Chakra Kriya are available in the
book, Meditation as Medicine by Dr. Dharma Singh Khalsa)
“There is no time, no place, no space and no condition attached to this mantra.
Each garbage pit has its own time to clear. If you are going to clean your own garbage,
you can clean it as fast as you can, or as slowly as you want.”
Yogi Bhajan on Sodarshan Chakra Kriya
What music do you most use in your classes
and personal practice?
I am always trying to find new music to share with my
students, so my favorites go through revolutions, but right
now these are them:
The Journey Home by Gurunam Singh
I play this CD every day. My students love the Pavan Pavan and
can’t get enough of the Dukh Par Har track with Yogi Bhajan’s
voice.
Listen by Sat Kartar
On Listen, whenever I play the first track ‘Ek Ong Kar’ in class,
the energy picks right up and just flows.
Heaven’s Touch by Gurunam (Joseph Michael Levry)
The Guru Guru Wahe Guru on this CD is great. Some of my
corporate classes rate this track as one of their favorites.
YOGI TIP
Sautéed Ginger and Almonds
with Honey
Ingredients:
• 30 Unsalted Almonds (with skins –
Yogi Bhajan often said to remove the
skins from almonds, but he said that
these sautéed almonds should have
their peels)
• 2 inches peeled, diced fresh ginger
• 1 Tbsp Ghee
• 1 Tbsp Honey
Instructions:
1.Put ghee and ginger in a skillet
over medium heat – sauté, stirring
occasionally until ginger begins to
soften (aprox. 3 to 5 minutes)
2.Add almonds, stirring often.
3.When almonds become a dark
brown color and start to smell
roasted, add honey, stir to
completely coat the almonds and
ginger, and then remove from heat.
4.Let cool – the honey will harden a bit
on the almonds, making a coating
somewhat like peanut brittle or
caramel.
This is a delicious treat when
you are feeling the blahs while
menstruating!

How did you first become interested in Bhangra and what inspired you to
begin teaching it?
I went to school in India when I was 11 years old and
that’s when I was first introduced to Bhangra and
found my love for dancing. I’ll never forget the day
when Yogi Bhajan saw me dance Bhangra for the
first time. I was 16 at Summer Solstice that year and
after a beautiful ceremony by the Hopi Indians, we
danced and danced. Yogi Bhajan loved dancing. I
started to dance a little Bhangra. He saw me from
several hundred feet away and bellowed at the top
of his lungs, “Ravi! Bhangra!” The other 300 people
stopped dancing and looked at me. I was mortified!
He made me dance and dance that night. I only
knew one move, but I did it over and over again.
After that, at many classes he taught, he would bring me up and tell me to
dance bhangra and to teach everyone how to dance. I was 16 and not really
trained. I thought I’d better learn something. From all my years in India, I
realized that I had learned the basic body movements of Indian dance and my
body already knew the “language”, I just had to increase my “vocabulary”.
I love bhangra and I love teaching it - and I’ve been teaching ever since that
nerve racking summer. Last year I expanded my teaching schedule to travel to
Europe, South America, Singapore, and India. It’s such a blast to go to these
different countries and share my love of bhangra.
What sets Bhangra apart from other styles of dance and exercise?
By dancing with your arms over your head, you get an incredible cardio
workout. By moving your shoulders up and down, you keep your lymph
glands clear and flowing. By keeping a smile on your face the whole time,
you have so much fun that you don’t realize you are exercising.
History of Bhangra
Bhangra is a high energy folk dance
that comes from northern India.
Traditionally it’s danced and performed
during the harvest season in Spring
around the time of Baisakhi. Many of
the dance steps come from village life
experience and the farmer’s work in
the fields. the main beat of Bhangra
is set by a drum called the Dhol.
Western music has in the past decade
embraced and infused Bhangra beats
and rhythms into pop music. Bhangra
clubs are more popular than ever as
people are finding the pure joy of
dancing Bhangra to the Bhangra beat!
Yogi Bhajan would talk a lot about bhangra and the health benefits. He once said
if you do bhangra 30 minutes a day you don’t have to do yoga! (I soon learned
that doing 30 minutes of bhangra is way harder than it seems.) There are many
Kundalini yoga sets that include bhangra dance. It’s great when yoga teachers
invite me to teach at their center - not only do people learn the basics of bhangra,
but the teachers get more familiar with it and feel comfortable teaching these
classes that incorporate bhangra more into their repertoire.
Ravi Reccomends:
Bhangra music has gone from local village style music to an international
arena. Bhangra is now fused with the styles of hip hop, pop, rock, and reggae
creating an even more exciting genre of bhangra. Whether you prefer “old
school” or an infusion of styles, there is plenty for everyone.

What inspired you to make your new DVD, Yoga in Motion?
Over a period of 25 years, I had gathered
songs that I either wrote for children or just
spontaneously began to sing as spirit-reminders
for myself. I also collected many songs for
children as a long-time Montessori teacher. Many
of these songs I adapted to fit the Aquarian times
we live in. For example, on the Cozy album, and
Yoga In Motion DVD, I used the well known Eensy
Weensy Spider song in a new way: “The eensy
weensy spider went up the water spout to ask all
the Universe what is life about? The stars in the
sky said that life is great! So the eensy weensy
spider went home to meditate.”
I had thirty-something songs about the fun of living in spirit, and in 2006 I
created the albums Happy and Cozy. Last year, I took 22 of those songs,
put yoga moves, dances, and meditative movements to them, and created
the Yoga In Motion DVD. I wanted there to be something really fun and
engaging that would remind children (and their parents and teachers) that life
is supposed to be joyous, that we are spirit in human form. People tell me
that children who don’t even respond to yoga love these affirmative songs and
movements. They have been very successfully used in therapy for ADHD and
Autistic children as well.
How did you decide to focus your teaching on children?
In 1977, I began teaching children yoga in the spiritual
community I was living in. I immediately loved being
with these innocent and wise beings, and that love
affair has never ended! I started with young children,
but now can be in synch and truly appreciate the
specialness of children of all ages--from babies to teens.
In 1999, I finished my work as an author of yoga
books and returned to my first love—children’s yoga.
I developed The Radiant Child Yoga Program in order
to teach others how to teach children yoga, so we
can create a world of adults who are connected to
their inner being/source, and once that happens, a
world of peace and harmony is only natural.
Shakta Kaur Recommends:
For quite a while I’ve been meditating with Amrit Kirtan’s Sacred Circle in the
early morning. I also enjoy using Anand by Snatam Kaur and Nectar of the
Name by Sat Purkh in my yoga classes.
I find the Women’s Yoga Music CD that I compiled is loved by women (and
men) who have it. I have always been a connoisseur of fine music of many
traditions, and this album has the best of the best. There is always more
new wonderful music though, and Spirit Voyage is always there to bring more
wonderful talent to light!
YOGI TIP FOR KIDS
Sa Ta Na Ma Meditation
Have you ever taken a Karate or Kung
Fu class? You know how there are
certain sounds that you make that
help you focus and add energy to your
kicks? Well, there are “yoga sounds”
too. SA TA NA MA are some of those
sounds. They give you focus and
add a certain kind of energy to your
meditation. Here’s how to use them:
Say “Saah” and press your thumb and
first finger together.
On “Taah” press your thumb and
middle finger together.
On “Naah” press your thumb and ring
finger together.
On “Maah” press your thumb and little
finger together.
Now that you’re a master at SA TA NA
MA, you are ready to graduate into
“Black Belt” meditation. Here’s how:
1. Say it out loud for 1 minute.
2. Whisper it for 1 minute.
3. Hear it inside your head for two
minutes while you keep moving your
fingers.
4. Whisper again for 1 minute.
5. Say it out loud again for 1 minute.
When you’re done, jump up and
shake yourself for a minute. Then
congratulate yourself for graduating
into “Black Belt” meditation.
