Day 5 - 11 minutes
Today's practice was around 8:am. I was intending to wake around 5:30 but didn't. It was very nice anyway, but I'll try again tomorrow.

Today's practice was nice. I've felt great all day and have been extra open and wanting to communicate with people. I've felt very grounded today, peaceful, aware, in a focussed and meditative state all day. I've been able to concentrate on my projects of the day easily, which is cool.

Anyway, great day and will try again tomorrow for the early practice.

:D blessings for all!

Day 6 - 11 minutes
Earlier, but still not before 6:am. Getting closer though. I'm hoping to slowly reset my body clock. As of now, I have a hard time falling asleep until at least 3:am, so then I don't rise until at least 7:30 or 8:am unless I have an earlier call time. I'm trying to chill earlier in the night and sleep earlier in order to rise earlier... it's a work in progress!

So, today's practice was at 7:30am. I felt strong throughout the practice. One thing I noticed was that I felt my belly muscles today! I'm in good shape but I guess doing such powerful belly breathing for this many days in a row so far, has given my muscles a workout. Yet another awesome benefit :D

Also, continuing to follow thru with savasana... sometimes I end with a seated meditation. Loving the savasana.

I feel smooth, flowing, energized and sweet inside. I am really loving this prana practice.

How's everyone else doing? Blessings!

Day 7 - 11 minutes
The practice was nice. I'm now able to push thru the entire 11 minutes without losing my intention or any of the physical actions, breath is powerful and smooth. My belly muscles are a bit sore from this. Awesome, a deeply toned belly is a fab benefit!

You know what I'm noticing most? The after-effects. I have a shininess to my day that wasn't there fulltime before. I'm a happy, energetic person, but this is another level... its soulful JOY & PEACE. And alot of energy.

The feeling is strong and real and I know something has shifted b'c more strangers than before smile at me, more people want to engage in conversation and at a deeper connection level.

A divine resuscitation.

Thank you, KF. Beauty.

Hope all of you are well & loving this too :D

Day #35. all is well. Tracy - so great to hear about all the marvelous experiences you are having. YES - vibrating like you are .. much will come to you ... the beacon - the white light

The Trinity Breath today was also powerful - and seems to shift in the time / space world as well ... yeah .. both endless and short - at the same time. The sarvansan afterwards is such a delight. When I wake up - I get all excited just thinking about doing this pranayama and how lucky I am to be doing it. Truly blessed AND of course with JW & TG and all else who are doing it .. it is like riding a rocket to the moon !

blessed be.

Day #35

I guess this is the day...I have lost track.
However, since KFKC and i started together
then i know it's correct....

I understand what you mean Tracy when you say that something
has shifted...for me it isn't easy to put into words...

My schedule has been challenging lately and not consistent
because of "worldly duties", however I have stayed committed
to doing this practice everyday. It has deepened my awareness and
since of peace. Not the peace that is known as the opposite of war
but the peace that has no opposition but our true nature before
we started to "learn".

Some days are easier to get into than others...but once
i get started and keep it moving something clicks and i
just move on up...

...also in sarvasana i have been channeling my microcosmic orbit
and experiencing the powerful effects of prana...

Give thanks Tracy and KFKC!
And definitely Yogi Bhajan!!

Day 8 - 11 minutes
Cool practice today. My intention was joyful surprises in life. I love when spontaneous, mysterious little joyful events happen. I sent appreciation for that. I'm beginning to be able to time 11 minutes without really clock timing it. Kind of neat.

Breathing was smooth and my muscles don't hurt today. They feel strong and toned and soft when I want them to be. I feel in control of this practice & still have the sense of peace & joy that I talked about earlier.

Enjoy your Sunday everyone...

Just had a friend call to ask for one of my paintings to place in their new club.

Yes, bring on the joyful surprises...

Day #40.

40 days come and 40 days go. Just like all of life. And now these past 40 days I have given the gift of experiencing myself with the energy, vitality, inner light of this pranayama. It is said that is pranayama will connect the subconscious and the intuition. It is a challenging pranayama and it gives great power and strength to the pituitary (3rd eye) and I am sure everybody felt the 3rd eye pulsate like never before.

So for me today .. was a rough start in the sense of the mediation process ... and the sarvasna period was smooth as silk and so .. yummy and right there ... makes all the other work ... the rough start - fade away like a distant memory.

As Tracy is still doing this pranayama - I will continue on and complete her 40 day cycle with her - balancing both the male / female - east coast / west coast and of course - it will be fun !!!

JW - I will be posting another pranayama that is done at night and it very yin to help balance this very active pranayama we just did .. this one is super sweet - I hope to have it posted in the next 10 days or so

Looking forward to hearing from anyone else who has tried this pranayama on and what it felt like.

Blessings big and small so we can be ALL we were born to be - and beyond.

Day 15 - 11 minutes
Hi all

KF, true about how time disappears like wind. It's been almost a week since I've written about my practice but, yeah, I'm still here.

I've reached a plateau of sorts with it ... each day is gorgeous and my energy & physical appearance and so many other things are positively enhanced by doing it daily, but I haven't had any WOW moments. Maybe I'm working thru some things? I notice that both of you posted less and less, so maybe the major shifts are in the beginning. Or, maybe things just get more peaceful & connected that there seems no need to post daily. At least thats the way I've felt for the past several days.

I send you all so much love...

Congrats on 40 days guys!! Even if you enjoy doing this, it takes commitment and dedication & thats awesome that you went with it & can now move on to the next one.

I'll keep posting here, KF, thx for following my journey with me... you don't *have* to stay, but I do like the company & encouragement :) I think I will go for the 90 days. Not so much as a challenge, but rather a prana practice for every day. I really am loving having this base each day.

! peace & light !
