I've just returned from a Naam Yoga Class, followed by a healing circle. Naam Yoga is interweaving Kabbalistic and Kundalini Yoga. It is a unique merging and refining of the world's most powerful esoteric traditions. It is a spiritual science and art that merges the crowning yoga practices of the East with the unparalleled esoteric tradition of the West, which is Universal Kabbalah. The result is the most powerful distillation of the world's major teachings. Naam Yoga™ is the return to One. It is the universal key for maximum spiritual evolution.

It's not an Asana Class (which I love most when practised in flows, such as Jivamukti Yoga or Vinyasa Yoga), you won't find many of the typical asanas. You move, quite intensely, in your own rhythm, your breathe, often in combination with a specific mudra and chant mantra's.

Each wednesday around the world, a 30 minute healing circle is held. The healing circle follows a specific set of mantras with mudras. The mantras are the most powerful and ancient ones known to man.
From personal experience I know how powerful the mantra "Ra Ma Da Sa Sa Se So Hung" is for setting healing in motion. A few weeks ago I has surgery with regional anaesthesia. I started playing the mantra 5 days beforehand and I took it into the OR. The Anaesthesia didn't work so well and I felt almost everything from the first incision to the closing with sutures. I'm quite certain that I was able to keep quiet and block the pain out because I was so occupied with the mantra. I'm not sure if I wouldn't have had the same effect from other mantras, but I do know that after the OP I felt as if I didn't just had surgery. I had a dehydration problem that put my body in a bit of a shock that caused a 5 day long headache. The surgery started much later than planned and I hadn't had any liquids since 12 hours and then they didn't put a liquid solution drip in, which would be normal procedure, until I asked for it when I noticed the headache coming up. So I left the hospital with a headache and a scar, still with the mantra playing in my ear. Normally I would have been quite upset about the bad care (and this is a hospital that calls itself a "leading hospital of Switzerland") and about the headache, but instead I was having lunch in town 2 hours after the OP. I needed salt and liquids, and a salty soup, quite good to counteract dehydration. Aside from the headache, there was no pain and exceptionally fast healing.

From what I understand how this mantra works it has the most powerful healing effect when you focus the mantra on that what you want to heal or to whom you want to send healing energy. It also gives you a positive attitude, there is a "believing in it" aspect to it, but on a sheer vibrational level, the mantra generates a frequency that keeps you positive and believing in the healing action. We now know that our brain can rewire itself and heal the body from the inside out. The rewiring takes place on a vibrational level, by believing in it, by tricking it, by changing the frequencies of the vibration. Most ancient traditions use chanting certain words, that do not always make sense from the meaning of these words and were chosen purely for the frequency they generate.

Everything is energy is vibration is frequency. Everything from the most solid to liquids vibrates. Some vibrations we can hear because the frequencies can be distinguished by our ears. I'm quite certain that even our emotions emanate specific sounds. Animals are great at picking emotions up, we also often react to something that's seemingly invisible, but we pick it up anyway and instinctively are attracted or stay away from certain people, areas, etc.

Would a simple mantra or frequency be able to help stop wars, to help stop fights, to help cure diseases (the latter already being studied)? Do certain frequencies stimulate fights, wars, diseases? I believe this to be the case, but who will benefit from it? Wars and disease are billion dollar businesses ...

Synchronicity, life is beautiful! I do speak Swiss German, but can't twist my fingers around writing it, tongue twisting is enough :-). Ashtanga Yoga and Vinyasa Yoga are similar, but with Vinyasa you create your own flows. I found Ashtanga Yoga too "male", but also addictive ;-). How many classes do you teach? How is life in North Wales?

I don't mind sharing personal stuff, the only thing I can really talk about with integrity is myself :-)

I first had a whiplash from a shiatsu treatment just after I turned 50. It was a violent act, resulting in me feeling
quite unbalanced and as it wasn't initially diagnosed, also quite frightening. Early February 08 I realised that I had to change in order to get better. My goal was (and is) to make the next 50 years even better than the first 50. After a week on the slopes I felt better and then went ice skating with a friend, on rental ice hockey skates and bad quality ice. I have been skating for the better part of my life, but on speed skates. Just when I was getting used to the ice hockey skates I was trying to avoid a kid, came up but lost balance and fell in full movement backwards, the right wrist bumped twice and it was quite clear that it wasn't just a sprain ... took the bus and tram to the ER at the hospital across from where I live and it was a solid distal radius fracture with an ulnar styloid fracture and a ligament tear as well. The next day a plate was screwed on the radius end and the ulnar sided problems left to heal by itself. That was the hand surgeon's decision, not mine. It took a long time to get range of motion back, actually it was because I started to do vinyasa yoga 20 weeks after the accident, that helped most. I couldn't flatten my hand until 3 classes later. As the plate was hurting the surrounding tissues, tendons and nerves, I had the plate removed a few weeks ago. 2 days after surgery I felt a great quietness in the wrist, I have no other words for it to describe how for the first time in 10 months, it felt quiet, relaxed, it felt like I had my wrist back. I still have wrist instability, because the surgeon seems to think it takes up to 12 months, but I trust my instincts more and it said from the beginning that he should have repaired the tears during the initial surgery. Now it's turned chronic and when typing for a long time, or playing the piano for more than 15 minutes, it starts burning and feeling uncomfy. Although I do a lot of down dogs, planks, cobra's and up dogs, the wrist always makes itself known. But 15 minutes in a session there seems to be a kind of truce and the wrist calms down. It's a great teacher and a great mindfulness trainer :-).

I'm Dutch, living and working in Switzerland ;-). Definitely will keep in touch. Raja Yoga is a style I have yet to try. I'm a bit ecclectic (modern typecasting would be a 'Renaissance Soul') so I've been trying out many yoga styles. I prefer the more flowing styles (Vinyasa, TriYoga, Jivamukti) but I'm trying to fit a Hatha Yoga Class in each week, it does help winding down. My interest in Kundalini Yoga is the healing aspect and Naam Yoga more specifically.
