I'm an MD who had a full spontaneous kundalini awakening beginning in the 4th year of medical school. I didn't know what it was for 3 years, then kept it secret for about 7 years because of my professional career. During this time I began writing an anonymous blog specifically for scientists undergoing spiritual awakenings in 2016. Eventually, I published a book about kundalini in the context of a Western scientific career.
Recently I have become more public about my experience. 11 years in I feel I can say the kundalini has completed what it was meant to do, and I feel qualified to answer questions on the topic, and help with reintegration and expression of it's gifts in a wider context.
I feel like there a lot of myths of kundalini that could be dubunked, not the least of which is that it is common. It is not and unfortunatly most of the literature on the topic is aspirational, not practical for someone actually undergoing an awakening in the modern age. I have found a few good mentors, not the least of whom is Mary Shutan and feel like mentoring is an important part of success on the path.
My best to all y'all.
I’ve been a RN for 28 years and had a STE/kundalini experience in/since (ongoing) January this year. I was previously diagnosed as terminal with pulmonary hypertension, heart failure and kidney failure by Cleveland Clinic. Since my STE, I’ve been healed and am now back to work as a RN and starting school for my psychiatric nurse practitioner degree. It’s always nice to see another medical professional who has experienced this!
Hi Drea I just ordered your book. I’m a psychotherapist of 25 years with a commercial career before that. And the moment going through divorce of abusive husband of 37 years (no one knew or guessed as I am a strong woman) and folding a mental health social enterprise I founded and ran for 10 years. I wondered if intense nerve pain had been part of ur experience and if so what helped?
You can look me up on linked in - Nicky Forsythe - as a I'm posting about kundalini regularly there.
Would love to talk/meet sometime if you are, or are ever, in London
Hello Drea, as I have non stop K since my early fourities, and I am in my early seventies, I am curious about how it ends.
Hello Drea, I am a nurse, I have been in the process for 9 years, I have heard that this transformation can last a lifetime, I would like to know what you think of this statement and if you have met other scientists who have followed up on this process, in my case I have studied with many challenges and sometimes it feels exhausting, I often think if at some point it ends or will it stabilize for me, I love my profession but due to the process I have gone through a lot of disability which has made my professional development a little difficult, sometimes I fear a little the future, I would like to ask you how you came to the conclusion that the process is over for you, have you stopped feeling the fluctuation of energy?
I'm glad to hear a Western trained medical doctor talking about Kundalini. That's rare. I have 1 brother who is a neurologist and another who is a Psychologist, both devout rationalists,, and I can't discuss any of this with them. It's just a no-go. However when I decided to be open with new people I met I was surprised by how many of them had had spiritual experiences or past-life memories. And several people whom I would never have suspected were in the K process. It's just that wehave all been taught not to discuss it so it's impossible to know how common it is.
Thanks - enjoyed reading your blogs.
Hi Drea, I have just enjoyed reading your blog and now I look forward to reading your book. Thanks for sharing with everyone.
Hi Drea, yes Welcome!
I think we all have our different ways of processing kundalini. Yes for some people having a mentor is really helpful.
For me personally what I have found extremely valuable has been meeting others going through the process, and the sense of connection and friendship that has resulted from this. Also learning from others going through the process + initially the warm grounded information and advice provided by Bonnie Greenwell.
Welcome to the community. I look forward to sharing and discussing with you my observations and reflections about life's journey following a full kundalini awakening.
