This is a five-step technique, each step being 7 minutes.
1. Chaotic Breathing
Duration: 7 minutes
Close your eyes. Sit in vajrasana, with legs folded at the knees and bottom on the heels. Place your hands on your hips. Inhale and exhale deeply and chaotically, without a particular rhythm.
2. Intense Humming
Duration: 7 minutes
Continue to sit in vajrasana, form chin mudra with your fingers with the tips of the forefinger and thumb touching each other. Place your hands on your knees, palms facing upwards. With your mouth closed and lips together, produce a humming sound ‘Mmm...’ as intensely as possible, as loudly as possible and as lengthily as possible.
There is no need to make an effort to take in deep breaths. The body itself will take the correct amount of breath when needed.
Become the humming.
3. Chakra Awareness
Duration: 7 minutes
Continue to sit in vajrasana or sit cross-legged if you wish. Keep your fingers in chin mudra. Now take your awareness to each chakra (energy center) starting from the muladhara chakra (root center) to the sahasrara chakra (crown center). Keep your awareness on each energy center for one minute each. Feel the energy center completely as if your whole being has become that energy center.
4. Be Un-clutched
Duration: 7 minutes
Just witness your thoughts. Your thoughts are unconnected, independent, illogical and unclutched. Just watch your thoughts – do not create, sustain, destroy or judge them.
5. Guru Puja
Duration: 7 minutes
Just sit in a relaxed way, connected to and feeling gratitude to Existence, to the Master.
