Meditation for childhood trauma, bad memories and attachment
I started doing this Kundalini Yoga meditation almost a year ago and have worked through many of my attachments to people and situations that no longer serve me. If you are stuck repeating the same patterns over and over again and are ready to make a change in your life this is the meditation for you. It will help to elevate you beyond your family programming. If you are planning to become pregnant it will eliminate any negative programming from your childhood so that your son or daughter does not have to repeat the same energetic sequence of events in his or her life. Wow! That is powerful.
The meditation was actually taught by Yogi Bhajan as a “childhood meditation”. You can practice this with your children. Children follow what you do not what you say. By simply meditating in front of your children you are doing them a great amount of good. If they see you doing this consistently as they grow they will assume that meditation is a normal part of their day. If you are not sure how to begin to teach your children meditation this is a short description taken from the Aquarian Child Manual below.
According to the scriptures, while in the womb of the mother the child goes through each of the 108 basic postures of yoga. So with a bit of help, the child can follow the postures very easily.
Before the age of four, it’s difficult for the child to maintain a posture for a long time, as their attention span is pretty short. A children’s yoga class can be shorter than an hour. Each exercise can be 30 to 60 seconds, stopping before they space out, become tired or bored. Chanting can be fun if it’s not too taxing on the lungs. Tell them how many repetitions you will be doing, “Let’s do this 15 times!”
Use visual pictures: When tuning in, or chanting, “This is the time when God speaks through you. You are like a straw or a pipe through which water can flow. God is the water, you are the straw.” Let them take turns leading the different exercises, helping you teach. As our teacher says, “If you want to master something, teach it!” Helping to lead the class will spark their interest.
Jupiter Finger Chakra Meditation as Taught by Yogi Bhajan
“This meditation was originally taught by Yogi Bhajan as a “children’s meditation,” but can also be practiced by adolescents and adults. Anyone with past trauma will benefit from this practice. Even someone without past trauma can improve the balance of their personality by its use. This meditation helps to balance the chakras and meridians in the body. It is an excellent meditation to practice with your children. It will evoke many feelings that have stuck with you since you were a child. It will help adults get rid of the “childhood syndrome,” a condition where you cling to something that is already finished – a syndrome which can easily ruin and limit your life.”

Please note that this meditation is not for beginners and should be taken very seriously as it brings up a lot of old memories. If you choose to do this, start slow and then increase your time.
Mudra: Sit straight with your eyes closed. Place your left hand flat against your chest at the heart center. Use the index (Jupiter) finger of the right hand (Keep the other fingers closed in a relaxed fist with the thumb over the other fingers.) to touch in sequence the following points:
1. The middle of the lower lip. (Chant Saa.)
2. The tip (end) of the nose. (Chant Taa.)
3. The outer edge/corner of the eye socket. (Chant Naa.)
4. A point about three-quarters of an inch above the indent of the nose, just below the forehead. (Chant Maa.)
Mantra: Chant the mantra “Saa-Taa-Naa-Maa” out loud in sequence with the touching of the points.
Since there are two eyes and thus two outer edges of the eye socket, you alternate sides each time as you go through the sequence. Start by touching the right side first. Each round of touching the points and chanting the mantra through takes about four to five seconds.
Time: Eleven to thirty-three minutes. Younger people may practice for eleven minutes or less.
End: Inhale, hold the breath, and feel your inner child by self-hypnosis. Exhale. Inhale a second time, and picture yourself as a child in your heart, where your left hand is. Concentrate. Exhale. Inhale and repeat the picture of yourself, and bless that child and yourself.
