Awesome, Forrest! I'll add the Om chanting pac-man into the mix. Quite a stew we've been putting together, eh? Thanks for your guidance! Blessings and blissings!
Thank you Forrest ji. I really wish more people find your channel. For me was like understanding exactly what was happening to me. (I remember I was doing my first meditation with a group meditation I found on the net when Pandemic time, and a lot of things happened to me in that session, that I was unable to understand and even I became very scared about meditation) then I found you and was like receiving a yogini certificate 😅 It was the understanding on how our system works that makes me to feel we should be taught/train with this knowledge in childhood, our lives would be easier.
Dear Forest, you help so much with your teachings, thank you, I’ve experienced so many wonderful moments in my meditation by following your formula, it worked straight away the first time. I still bought your book on kindle, anyway, thanks again.
I have been practicing kriya yoga for an year now. I take 2 breaths every minute. The technique is simple. Fold your tongue, push the tongue to your upper palate. This will semi close your epiglotis. That will make you take the deep breath. I inhale and exhale deep though. It feels so calming. I do this all day and everyday as suggested by my guruji. Good luck. AUM 🙏
Started reading your book just now. I had many questions but after beginning your manuscript the questions will be answered as I progress though the literature. I am so happy that someone teaches the biological, the science side of meditation. 🙏
Thanks Forest, you're a god send for people like me who want to get to the meditation sweet spot. I especially need this in my life due to overwhelming depression and anxiety.
Forrest, I am very grateful for all your videos. This one is a great summary. You are a God-send. Question: I have read that very short meditations are more "efficient" than long ones. What is the best length of time for me to target/ I have gone longer than an hour, but was not sure that I was fully aware and awake during it all. Thank you.
Amazing explanation Guruji. I have starting doing the same sequence as you have mentioned. MM-->Navi-->HRV--->SVS-->4P-->Om Japa--> Cutebaby and/or Hakalau. I just love this meditation process and every day (almost) I want to wake up in the morning and yearn for more in this process.
Just a thought to share. When you were talking about the freeze response, it made me think of it. I think a lot of this has to do with sensory fatigue. Think about olfactory fatigue, where you stop smelling onions in the kitchen or something like that. When our nervous system is exposed to a continual stimulus, it turns it off after a while. It works for all of our senses the freeze response I think is this sensory fatigue syndrome. As well as the chanting. The repeated chanting if it is steady, will become something that the nervous system our brain will cost to disappear. At that point we will have reached the thoughtless state.
Thank you Forrest! I’ve been experimenting with your formula for a few months now and I’m not clear on something - do you stop HRV breathing once you get the freeze response? Should you be doing HRV resonant breathing while doing om japa too?
@@jonathankalinowski1566 great question yes you want to do the HRV resonance and tell you get deep into the resonance, then let it go and enjoy and see how much of the Tranquil breathe and freeze response arise
if u add the "inner smile" from Tao before you start to do HRV, it relaxes ur body and mind and puts them into a very pleasent state. If i do HRV after inner smile, my body and mind gets sooooo relaxed just as i was meditating for like 30 minute. Hope you give it a try
Forrest, your training has been great, and it really works! I have been able to achieve remarkable progress, and everything you describe. So …. Where do I go from here? What is the next step?
Thank you I will try meditating slow breathing, but that’s pretty much all I understand from everything you’re saying, could you elaborate on all the OM etc.
@ForrestKnutson Forrest, Thank you so much for this knowledge 🙏🏻. I have a question, I think I am stuck somewhere. When I meditate nowadays, I see an eye and keep on seeing the same for a long period of time,till I give up. Is that normal?
I heard someone say the consciousness that humanity has is the work of thousands of Yogis that came and left before us. It is our responsibility to give back to the Universe from which we have taken so much. Once you reach there, it will be your job to continue the work of those Yogis and Rishis, and do what you can. Is this true?
@@BigToody in a way yes, but not with the necessarily outward title of Yogi, but all those who have struggled to drag themselves into higher awareness. 🙏🪷
@@kimulm0619 the HRV resonance will work even when you don't breathe perfectly, and then you can slowly develop your belly breathing. I have an exercise in my book called The Three lung exercise which is very good for this. But again this is not immediately necessary in order to make the resonance work.
Funny! You would call it if I'm, so when I am having trouble getting into the center. I actually just vision like a crazy amount of little light burst and I'm basically straffing the area with a bunch of tiny little bombs.. and then this helps me find the more specific part here. I found this out by trying to work on a muscle cramp and that couldn't get it. So I got pretty pissed off and just decided that I was doing tighten up as hard as I could. Didn't work. It actually just stayed tight. So I repetitively tighten it as hard as I could as fast and It worked really well...
I was skeptical of the title, but honestly it’s very similar to what I have figured out as well. And got some tips. Thank you for teaching something good in a world full of junk 😬😬😬
I have very powerful sensations arise when doing HRV and BPV breathing. So powerful I feel I might fall out of my seat. It always begins when I do the breath hold for the BPV. Powerful energetic tingling and body twitches rise up, body feels rigid, hands feel hot and I lose awareness of the boundaries of fingers interlaced on my lap. If eyes open the visual field gets brighter with twinkling lights. Eyes closed has abstract patterms appear. It feels so powerful that I'm afraid I will fall out of my seat so I exhale the breath hold and it dissipates. Is this normal.
@@CaptainPhilosophical yes this is very normal and you are beginning to lose the body in the freeze which is very good this is pratyahara. The Visions are also normal. You might want to switch to sitting on a bed that might help you to feel a bit more secure. Make sure to keep doing the three insurance policies that I recommend in order to keep everything in a smooth course 🪷🌹✨️🙏
My 2 cents.... Those looking to meditate effectively, please check your blood pressure, bring it down. You will experience that it is easy getting into deeper state of meditation.
You would never be able to get all of our ancestors in the cars driving..... That alone would be it...... Only wonder why so many people have PTSD? You know it should be a real warning. Sign when that's literally a disease that was come about from war fatigue. Amazing enough if you have it, guess what they do in the military, take you out of the fight. But no no not in normal society, theu know enough during a war that if you have these symptoms you need yo heal and cannot fight. But in america you better get up and do it again. Our society should NOT have us all getting a disease that was only recognized first as some particular to WAR! A great deal of us have symptoms from the build up and no specific event. Yet here we are....... Its pretty disgusting, just extra steps to take care of your basic needs while robbing you the entire way.
No such thing as a perfect meditation formula. Your one size fits all misses the point of each individual spiritual journey. We all find what we need when we need it, it's intuitive not prescribed.
Forrest . If anyone had truly ever did these practices correctly we would all know about it. So to say go go go inside of yourself but then go have a nother being tell you how they got inside. Well sir, can you see the hypocrisy of that in itself? To follow a lineage defies logic. Skip the man and go direct to the source. Words words words. Find God. The only goal
Beautiful teachings all together....Thank you somuch for giving this profound teachings for mankind...💐🙏🏻💐

Well in my head I literally feel what feels like a crown that comes out of my pineal and circles my head it's a very strange feeling. When meditating.
@Forrest Ji. Can I do Navi Kriya when I'm not doing kriya or sitting idly?
@@anuragsaha2632 absolutely🤩✨️🙏
Forrest this may be a silly question but ..r we supposed to diaphram breathe as we do this NOT chest breathe?Is that correct?

@@ForrestKnutson thanks Forrest 😊 I appreciate you.
Do you find that you are able to visualize more clearly (utilize more of your imagination) after years of meditating?
Isn’t kriya to be given by a guru on a one on one basis ?
In this app you mentioned is where?
Do you have any recs on how to properly do Navi?
Look for his video on The Gaurdian.
We need to respect all beings please lots of vegans&vegetarians share meditation💚🐾🐾🐾💙💜
