The Eight Human Talents: Restore the Balance and Serenity within You with Kundalini Yoga

I would recommend this book for anyone wanting to understand Kundalini yoga further. The stories are helpful too.

This book is well-written and a great supplement to your Kundalini Yoga practice. It's also good for beginners who are not familiar with Kundalini Yoga. It surpassed my expectations. Gurmukh is a great teacher and writer. She know's what's up when it comes to Kundalini Yoga. I can't recommend this book more highly.The book contains exercises you can do at home to activate your Kundalini "energy" at the base of your spine and balance your chakras.I got the book used, but just might order another freshly minted copy since I love it so much.Check out Golden Bridge Yoga LA and go to one of her classes for the full experience. Tell her Jim sent you! :)Other good teachers at Golden Bridge in LA are Guru Dev Singh, Sat Siri, and Gurushabd (Gurmukh's husband).This book will definitely restore the balance and serenity within you if you read it with that intent and your practice your Kundalini Yoga or some form of Yoga everyday (whether it be Jnana Yoga or different kriyas, meditations, pranayama, etc.)Kudos to Gurmukh for the all hard work she has put in to spreading Kundalini Yoga throughout the world with Yogi Bhajan.May you live in happiness, wholeness, and health. Have a beautiful day!

I met Gurmukh in Satnam Festival last summer, fell in love with her immediately! Her speech and dance made me feel so much love, like I was re-born with so much joy and love at that moment.my friend recommended this book to me, I felt her immense love again through her writing.if you love Kundalini yoga, this is a must read.

I love this book! It face me si much insight to things i could do to improve my lifestyle that ever since reading the book, my family had grown closer and we have become healthier. I totally recommend this book.

The Eight Human Talents explains each of the eight chakras. I bought this book after purchasing Gurmukh's Kundalini Yoga dvd. The dvd offered simple yet highly effective powerful exercises which I have followed for about a month or two now with good results. My physical and emotional health is greatly improved and I am thrilled to find Gurmukh's book. Gurmukh offers more exercises in the book along with personal anecdotes drawing on her life experience and her experience working with students. As Gurmukh says, kundalini yoga is doable for almost anyone in almost any physical condition and yet you will benefit from this practice in as little as three minutes a day. The Eight Human Talents is a valuable resource and worth owning to refer to again and again. Kundalini Yoga With Gurmukh The Eight Human Talents: Restore the Balance and Serenity within You with Kundalini Yoga

This book is not a comprehensive beginner's manual for kundalini yoga, though it does introduce some simple but effective meditations. Instead, Gurmukh shares stories from her own journey into awareness, and those of her students who have changed their lives with kundalini yoga and meditation. Her personal insights and uplifting stories make this book a worthwhile read, whether you're just getting started with kundalini yoga, or if your individual practice could use a healthy and uplifting boost.I've been reading small snippets of this book in the early morning hours before going to group sadhana, and her little nuggets of wisdom help set my intention for my meditations and the rest of my day. I plan to give copies of this book to my families and friends to introduce them to the technology, and help them understand why I have committed to incorporating KY into my life.

I have 3 yoga books. Two of them are nothing but exercises. It is my understanding that if "Jesus" did exist as it is supposed, he was promoting kundilini yoga. Its the star gate out of the planet. It is the temple within you.......its the way to bypass all your problems and find peace. I purchased this book because of the large quantity of positive reviews, but I found it disappointing. I still have not finished reading it. I was expecting more out of it. It does have some yoga exercises in it which I do like. They are much easier than the exercises in my other two yoga books. If your struggling to get started in a routine like I am, these exercises are perfect. They don't require much physical effort and are a good baby step to get you in to a routine.

I've recently discovered kundalini yoga and Gurmukh. This book is a great read. It discusses kundalini, has some amazing thoughts that would resonate with anyone whether yogi or not, and doesn't get too far out into concepts like many yoga books do. The book also has some simple meditations you can do, some of which have become parts of my daily practice.

I think this book does what it says it will which is to help you tap into your human talents. Full of ideas for different kundalini yoga postures to get your chakras balanced - some of which remain with you long after you have finished the book. If I had to point out a fault it would probably be that the case studies she uses seem 'unreal' or 'stereotypical' ie a druggie or an alcoholic.. Other than that its a good book to dip in and out of once you have read it to improve your knowledge of kundalini yoga. There are some really good diagrams of the postures too which makes understanding them easier. Its a book that uplifts as you can see there are little things you can incorporate into your life to improve your wellbeing, for example just breathing correctly and deeply. Its a good start point to learn the basics of kundalini yoga

Great book. Having presently taken up yoga I have found it invaluable.Reminds me of moves I've learnt in class.Recommended.

Yoga is spiritually more dangerous than people realise. Please stay away

I love the honesty of this woman, her energy and her glow. A great book to supplement practice.

I enjoyed reading this, it was very informative and easy to read.
