Kundalini Awakening Integration

Body as the path to wholeness

What Is Kundalini Awakening?

Kundalini awakening is a profound energetic process that transforms a person physically, emotionally, mentally, and spiritually. It can be triggered unexpectedly, through illness, loss, trauma, deep meditation, psychedelics, or seemingly out of nowhere.

More and more people are experiencing this awakening, yet in the West, there is still limited institutional understanding of this process of spiritual emergence in mainstream psychology and psychiatry. Instead, those who undergo this journey are often misdiagnosed, pathologized, or shamed for traveling what is a sacred journey.

This is not pathology, but an evolutionary process guided by a deeper intelligence. The energy moves through the body and psyche, clearing unconscious material, breaking conditioned ways of being, and opening us up to a larger web of reality.

This process is both beautiful and awe-inspiring, and can also be extremely disorienting, overwhelming, and isolating.

What You May Be Experiencing

You might be here because you’re moving through experiences like:

  • Intense energy surges or inner shaking

  • Chronic exhaustion or insomnia

  • Sensory overwhelm or hypersensitivity

  • Waves of fear, bliss, grief, or existential confusion

  • Uncontrollable movements or spontaneous sounds

  • Feeling disconnected from your previous identity, relationships, or reality

  • Psychic openings, synchronicities, or perception shifts

  • Feeling like you're "losing your mind" and an increased interest in spirituality

You’re not alone. And there’s nothing wrong with you.

How I Support This Process

I don’t claim to be a Kundalini teacher, healer, or authority.

My support comes as a companion — someone who has been through the dark nights, the inner rewiring, the shedding of self, and the long, slow return to embodied presence. I’ve known the fear of “what is happening to me,” and I’ve come to see this as a deeply initiatory process.

As a somatic and transpersonally oriented therapist and someone who has moved through my own prolonged energetic awakening, I hold space for your unique process without imposing a map or spiritual ideal.

I offer support for the trauma and inner childhood parts that are arising in this process, as well as a point of reference in any way that my journey can provide comfort for yours.

I’m also writing about my experience as a tribute to this sacred fire. These writings will live on Substack, offered freely for those walking this path and unsure where to turn. Just know that you’re not alone.

If any part of this speaks to what you’re going through, I invite you to reach out. Whether you’re in crisis, seeking reflection, or just want someone who won’t pathologize your experience, I’m here.
