ile practicing meditation are:

Meditation is a personal and private experience even when you are meditating in large groups. There are many meditations in Kundalini Yoga that help you stay focused and quiet. When you sit quietly and focus inwards you become very aware of what is going on in your mind and all the thoughts that you are thinking. (or sometimes not!) By not reacting to or evaluating the thoughts and processing them with mantra, breath or mudra you can create a stillness and calmness that will serve you through your day to day life.
There are hundreds of meditations available in Kundalini Yoga ranging from group, healing, couples or children’s mediations through to meditations that work on addictions, increasing vitality, clearing chakras or simply just trying to improve mental clarity.
Most of the book and DVD resources include meditation in some form. Some of the CD’s are actually meditative CD’s while others can be played during a meditation.
