Exploring Chakras: Awaken Your Untapped Energy

by Susan Shumsky

Until now, much of the wisdom contained in this book has been locked in secret hiding places in the forests and caves of India and Tibet. This book uncovers these new understandings about the subtle energy field. Kundalini shakti is a mysterious, dormant, potent force within the body that, when awakened, can bring spiritual enlightenment. This provides easy, step-by-step methods to help you begin to gently awaken your kundalini energy in a safe, reliable, and systematic way. These meditations, yoga postures, and yoga breathing methods are traditional, reliable, field-proven practices. By reading this valuable book, you will: * Discover your subtle body and energy field. * Learn about prana and how it functions in your body, mind, and spirit. * Gain understanding of kundalini energy and the chakra system. * Learn to heal blockages in your subtle body. * Learn to maintain health of your energy field. * Empower yourself as a multidimensional being.

[Teri Uktena · Rating 2 out of 5]

This was an odd combination of overview along with very detailed information. You get an idea of the complexity of the subject by just how much is included, but very little which is practical as to how to apply it other than "this practice exists and here's some of the components". I'm not saying there should have been more practical. Quite the opposite. I would have preferred a more in depth discussion of the chakras and perhaps how to combine yoga practices with them. The rest (pranayama, kundalini, healing practices and others) could have been left to another book, each being worthy of their own book treatment.

I give up. I can't do it. This is probably the worst book I've ever tried to read. I keep coming back to it as if it will somehow be different... It's the same self promotion crap over and over-"hey get my other book so that you can understand what I'm trying to say in this book but not saying in this book you already bought". I can't hate on her for trying to make a buck. But I also can't read her either.
