Kundalini Mediumship is a 3-step Healing Method:
1
Connecting to our unhealed wounds and traumas
2
Working with the kundalini to allow those wounds to process through our body
3
Embodying the divine or higher self hidden within
As long as we disconnect or dissociate from our wounds, we'll be trapped in the cycle of repeating them through sickness and distorted relationships. But hidden within our wounds is an energy and power that gives us true meaning and purpose in life.
What does an individual session look like?
Sickness exists within a complex web of our physical body, our emotions, our energetic body and within our interpersonal relationships. The first thing that happens during a session is the interview. The interview is where you begin to tell your story, which is the gateway to your wound and spirit. The wound is composed of our unresolved trauma and unexpressed emotions. When this trauma is unprocessed and unresolved, we disconnect and dissociate from it as a protective mechanism. The interview process is about connecting emotionally to that wound while also creating a map of how our defense mechanisms operate. Kundalini Mediumship practitioners use tracking to facilitate this process. This is a difficult process, because connecting to our wounds and unresolved emotions requires navigating our defense mechanisms in a respectful way. At the beginning stages, we are usually just trying to bring these defense mechanisms to our conscious awareness. As practitioners we understand that our clients’ wounds are really reflections of our own. Uncovering and revealing the wound is also the key that will allow the kundalini energy to open.
The second step is the physical bodywork. The wound makes its home in our bellies, and that is where much of the bodywork takes place. The practitioner is a vessel for the kundalini, and the kundalini herself begins the unwinding of the traumatic knots and cords that keep us bound down in karma. During the bodywork, you’ll have to let go to allow the energy to move through you, but you are not a passive bystander. It’s important to develop the awareness of what is happening inside your body and mind during the bodywork. Connecting to and developing your own relationship to this energy is the most important part of this process.
After the bodywork, there is an integration period. This is where we discuss any issues that came up, as well as actions you may need to take on your end. These actions may involve resolving interpersonal issues. They may involve learning techniques to access the kundalini on your own. Working with our wounding is not a one time thing. It is an ever-evolving and unfolding process that involves our relation to ourself, our family, our community and the world.

Kundalini
The primal energy of transformation and evolution.
The kundalini is the primal force of evolution. Yogic literature describes it as an energy lying at the base of the spine, coiled up like a snake. While it is dormant, we are at the mercy of our karmas – all the sickness and traumas that are stored in our energetic body. Most people live their life in a predictable path, living out the patterns inherited from their family, culture and past karmic lives, unable to break free. These patterns are manifested in the physical body as a blockage-- a tightness or rigidity. The kundalini vibrates, unwinds and works through these blockages. Knowledge of the kundalini has been passed down three ways-- through sacred texts, oral transmission from a teacher and direct energetic transmission. Whichever way it has been transmitted, the knowledge has to be understood through personal experience. Teachers and mentors are very important on this path, but you can’t learn ABOUT it from them. It has to be directly experienced.
Mediumship
The embodiment of energy for healing.
The spirit world exists parallel to and interwoven with our every day life. The door to the spirit world feels closed for for most people in our modern fragmented society, but this is a recent phenomenon. This door can open when doing deep healing work or after a trauma. Beyond this door are archetypal energies-- hidden shadow parts along with other beings that we can’t usually access in everyday reality. The opening of this door can be a painful process, as the parts of our selves we’d rather not see start to bubble up to the surface of our awareness. These shadow parts are actually aspects of our higher self or divine self, but as long as they are buried within our unhealed traumas we experience them as a negative part of ourselves. Our culture reinforces the pattern of disconnecting and dissociating from these parts. This only pushes them deeper into our unconscious, and pushes us further from seeing the divine self hidden inside them. Mediumship means embodying these hidden parts in order to transform darkness into spirit. All the gods and demons from our spiritual traditions can be understood and experienced as aspects of ourselves that are calling out for integration and embodiment.

“The only way through is in. But the magic comes with the spirit. Once you go into it and surrender to the process, the spirit actually transforms our wounds. And that thing that was your enemy becomes a source of power and strength.”
