Kirtan Kriya Meditation for Fertility & Mental Clarity
This meditation is from the Kundalini heritage and was taught by Yogi Bhajan. It can be done daily during pregnancy, and music to follow along can be found online and on YouTube. The Kirtan Kriya will help to balance your mood and emotions. It will also help to regulate your menstrual cycle, which is vital when you are trying to become pregnant. You can also do it back to back with your partner to combine your energies. It improves the memory and brain function and balances the glandular system.
Sit with your legs crossed and spine straight to start. The SA-TA-NA-MA meditation helps to release haunting, limiting patterns of the subconscious mind and prepare a couple for pregnancy. As you chant, imagine energy flowing through the top of your head, or your crown center, and out your third eye, or the place mid-brow between your eyebrows, in an L shape. This helps to circulate your breath and the energy of the sound current.
Eyes: Meditate at the brow point or third eye (Your eyes will look up and in at your forehead.).
Mantra:
SA: Infinity, cosmos, beginning.
TA: Life, existence.
NA: Death, change, transformation.
MA: Rebirth.
Mudra:
SA: Touch the first (Jupiter) finger.
TA: Touch the second (Saturn) finger.
NA: Touch the third (Sun) finger.
MA: Touch the fourth (Mercury) finger.
Begin the kriya in a normal voice for five minutes; whisper for five minutes; and then vibrate silently for ten minutes. Then come back to a whisper for five minutes and then aloud for five minutes. The duration of the meditation may vary, as long as the proportion of loud, whisper, silent, whisper, loud is maintained. Music for this meditation can be found online or on YouTube, which is easy to follow along with. End the meditation by stretching your hands up over your head and shaking them out and then inhaling and exhaling several times.
