【昆達里尼瑜珈對於面臨癌症的幫助】 Facing Cancer with the Help of Kundalini Yoga

 




自從 Guru Jai 診斷出癌症,她就建立了「昆達里尼瑜珈對於面臨癌症的幫助」計畫,來幫助罹患癌症的人們。




這個計畫起源於我自身罹癌的生活經驗,我很高興我可以運用昆達里尼瑜珈的呼吸、冥想、Shabad Guru、Kriya技巧來幫助罹癌患者。


過去幾年,我觀察自己對於不同體位法 (asana)、呼吸技巧 (prana),身體上有不同反應,可能這個人可以練習,但對另一個人並不建議。我和一些醫生討論過這個主題,我彙整了一系列 Yogi Bhajan 教授的能夠支持癌症病患的昆達里尼瑜珈。


在我生病期間以及在醫院的親身經歷,我理解到每個人都需要一個完整地個人瑜珈治療計畫。這就是我計畫的開端,從一個醫療、身體、情緒、心理上的層面,在他們生命中非常脆弱時刻的教授和幫助。


活在當下,讓生命的體驗流動,喚起我們的生命,拿回自己命運的主導權,帶著尊重與愛的方式,達到每天生命的主角是那個人而非疾病本身。這個計畫包含團體與個人的課程,提供居家或線上的課程,她同時也利用像銅鑼的聲音治療,這堂課主要的目標是幫助人們在壓力下可以喘息,以及改善心理上健康的持續治療。





                                       


Guru Jai Kaur 是來自義大利羅馬昆達里尼瑜珈的二階教師、昆達里尼瑜伽武術老師,她在 1994 年開始與 Guru Shabad Singh 學習昆達里尼瑜珈,在 1999 年於旁遮普卡沙週年紀念日遇到 Yogi Bhajan。


她在印度花了許多時間跟 Yogi Bhajan 在一起,她開始了解到這個教導的無限性,接著她開始分享這個教導。


Guru Jai 有文化人類學的學位,目前參與許多不同的計畫。

在她被診斷出癌症後,她建立了「昆達里尼瑜珈對於面臨癌症的幫助」的計畫來幫助罹患癌症的人們。她也在世界各地旅行,像是義大利到法國、英國、澳洲、中國,教授並帶領昆達里尼瑜珈以及武術的工作坊。

Since her cancer diagnosis, Guru Jai created the project “Facing Cancer with the Help of Kundalini Yoga” to support people living with cancer.

This program started with my own experience of living with cancer. It makes me happy to be able to help people with a cancer diagnosis by utilizing breathing, meditations, Shabad guru and kriya techniques of Kundalini Yoga.

In the last few years, I observed how my body responded to different physical exercises (asanas) and breathing techniques (pranayama), which ones could be practiced and which ones should not be recommended. After discussing this topic with some doctors, I summarized a series of Kundalini Yoga practices, as taught by Yogi Bhajan, that could support cancer patients.

During my own illness and direct experience in hospitals, I have understood that each person needs a completely personalized yogic therapeutic plan. This is how my project began, wanting to teach and help individuals who face a very delicate moment in their lives, from a medical, physical, emotional and mental point of view.

Living in the present moment, flowing into the experience that life calls us to live, taking ownership of one’s destiny with respect and love is a way of approaching everyday life in which the protagonist is not the disease but the person. This project includes both group and individual lessons also directly at home and online lessons are also provided, where she also utilizes sound therapies like the gong. The aim of the course is to support ongoing therapies while relieving stress and improving mental health.

Guru Jai Kaur is a second level Kundalini Yoga teacher and a Gatka teacher from Rome, Italy. She began studying KY in 1994 with Guru Shabad Singh and in 1999 met Yogi Bhajan at the Khalsa anniversary in Punjab.

In India, spending time with Yogi Bhajan, she understood the immensity of this mastery and since then she has been sharing his teachings.

Guru Jai has a degree in Cultural Anthropology and currently is engaged in  different projects.

Since her cancer diagnosis, she created the project “Facing Cancer with the Help of Kundalini Yoga” to support people living with cancer. 

She also travels around the world to teach and lead Kundalini Yoga and Gatka workshops, from Italy to France, England, Austria and China.

She was the director the Children Gatka program at the European Yoga Festival 10 years. She is actively participating in the Kundalini Yoga festivals both in Europe and China.

Moreover, Guru Jai is goldsmith and creates handcrafted jewelry inspired by Sikh symbolism and yogic culture, her business is called  Ramide jewelry.

訓練人們幫助癮症患者 ( Training People to Help People Who Have Addictions )

 






超級健康的體驗

深化教導、開啟事業機會


超級健康是打破習慣與癮症行為的尖端趨勢,這個系統融合了古老瑜珈科學的智慧與創新西方醫學,它提供了實用的技巧來療癒因有害物質、癮症行為的影響,以增加覺知的生活方式來生活。



這個計畫包含


昆達里尼瑜珈與冥想

針對不同面向的癮症提供特殊練習

排毒與重新建構基礎身體系統的飲食習慣

人類學的科學

諮商



「 超級健康」是如何開始的

1969年,Yogi Bhajan來到了美國,他發現年輕人靠著嗑藥來逃離他們文化環境的掏空感與隔離感。中產階級的「家庭主婦與商界人士」在這時期靠著扭曲的希望模式吞藥與濫用酒精麻木自己,這都源自內在的不快樂與壓力。在此同時,許多西方人尋求靈性上的滿足。


他在華盛頓特區中心舉辦了持續兩週的海洛因成癮治療作為實驗,維持24小時全天候無休的的環境監控。治療計畫的核心主要是昆達里尼瑜珈和冥想,每個人都歷經了驚人的轉化,接著「 超級健康計畫」就誕生了。


收到這個結果的啟發,土桑治療中心主導了試驗性計畫,讓藥物使用者進入治療。Mukta Kaur接著開始駐點計畫,最終得到健康照護機構聯合委員會的官方認可,獲得了榮譽表揚的盛譽。下面是Mukta Kaur分享超級健康計畫是如何開始的:









「 超級健康系統」

過了幾年,「 超級健康」發展成為一個有系統的計畫,針對癮症行為的客製化治療計畫,包含壓力、藥物濫用或其它不健康的習慣和情緒上的障礙。


2004年旁遮普政府邀請了「超級健康」計畫,在印度阿姆利澤舉辦了90天藥物使用者試驗性計畫,那裡有著一群很專業的受試者,這個計畫為10個顧客展開,這個經歷也深度地轉化他們的生命。種族淵源期刊有關藥物濫用的研究論文,已在阿姆利則2008年的有效性計畫中發表。


癮症行為、不健康的生活型態、持續性的壓力、資訊過載的問題在各種族中蔓延並劇烈地增加,「 超級健康計畫」持續地參與,並符合不斷增加的各種需求。



現今的「 超級健康計畫」


我們現今提供線上及面對面的教育訓練,教學課程滿足了尋求高意識最佳身心健康的個人療癒行程。「超級健康」訓練專為瑜珈老師、健康照護,甚至是更廣泛的諮商師而設計,幫助世界各地有所需求的患者或學生。


我們很榮幸成為聯合國經濟與社會理事會一員(聯合國的非營利組織)、新墨西哥州醫療補給站 、國際學生中心的供給站、以及每週當地社區的擴大服務站。

SuperHealth is on the cutting edge of breaking habits and addictive behavior. The system blends the ancient wisdom of yogic science with the innovations of western medicine. It provides practical techniques to heal from the effects of harmful substances and addictive behaviors and live a life of increased awareness.

The program includes:

  • Kundalini Yoga & Meditation
  • Specific practices given to address various aspects of addiction
  • Detoxification and Rehabilitation diets to rebuild essential body systems 
  • Science of Humanology
  • Counseling

How SuperHealth Began

In 1969, Yogi Bhajan came to America. He found young people taking drugs to escape the emptiness and isolation of their cultural environment. Middle class “housewives and businessmen” of this era were taking pills and abusing alcohol with a distorted hope of numbing themselves from an inner unhappiness and stress. At the same time, many people in the West were seeking spiritual fulfillment.

As an experiment, he housed two heroin addicts in his center in Washington, D.C. for two weeks, in a 24/7 controlled environment. The core of his treatment program for them was Kundalini Yoga and meditation. Both men experienced an amazing transformation. Out of this SuperHealth was born.

Inspired by the results, a Tucson Arizona treatment center conducted a pilot project for a drug user to enter treatment. Mukta Kaur then began a residential program that would come to be accredited by the prestigious Joint Commission on Accreditation of Healthcare Organizations, eventually receiving its highest commendation. 

Here is a video of Mukta Kaur sharing how SuperHealth got started:


The SuperHealth System

Over the years, SuperHealth developed into a systemized program with customized treatment plans for behavioral addictions including stress, substance abuse and other unhealthy habits and emotional disorders. 

In 2004, the Punjab government invited SuperHealth to conduct a 90 day pilot project for drug users in Amritsar, India. With a team of professional volunteers, the program opened to serve ten clients and the experience profoundly changed their lives. A research paper in “The Journal of Ethnicity in Substance Abuse” has been published in 2008 on the effectiveness of the program in Amritsar.

The problem of addictive behaviors, unhealthy lifestyles, constant stress and information overload spans all cultures and has become increasingly acute. SuperHealth continues to evolve to meet the ever-growing need. 

SuperHealth Today

We currently provide educational training, both online and in-person. The teaching programs cater to the needs of individuals well into their recovery period, who seek solutions that bring a high level of consciousness with the most optimal mental and physical health.

SuperHealth training is designed for yoga teachers, health care providers, and a wide range of counselors to help serve the needs of patients and students everywhere. 

We are proud to be an NGO with special consultative status with the Economic and Social Council of the UN (Non-Government Organization of the United Nations), Medicaid provider of New Mexico, a CEU provider for many professional designations and a provider of weekly hands-on outreach to the local community.
