The day Kundalini hit the brain changed everything - and if you’ve felt energy moving up your spine, this episode will help you make sense of what’s happening. Gareth Duignam breaks down one of the most intense experiences of his life, then goes deeper into the mechanics behind Kundalini, why it gets stuck, and what a full rising can do to the nervous system.
Rather than just telling a spiritual story, Gareth connects his firsthand experience to a practical understanding of what Kundalini actually is - the evolutionary energy of consciousness, not just “energy” in the usual sense. He explains why the rising can feel ecstatic, overwhelming, painful, and transformative all at once, and why the process often seems to stall at the heart, throat, skull, or shoulders. 

You’ll discover:

What Kundalini is and why it’s described as intelligent, directional, and transformative
What’s happening in the central channel, chakras, and nervous system during a rising
Why emotional material, trauma, and conditioned patterns can create blockages
What Gareth experienced when the energy finally broke through into the brain
Why a full rising often brings a quieter, more stable phase afterward
Gareth also shares the practical side of navigating Kundalini activity without trying to force it. He emphasizes rest, grounding, simplicity, devotion, and surrender - and explains why the deeper intelligence of the process often decides the pace long before the mind does.
If you’re in the middle of a Kundalini awakening, have felt partial risings, or just want a clear, grounded account of a phenomenon most people talk about in vague terms, this is essential listening. It’s part lived experience, part map, and part reassurance that what feels overwhelming may actually be unfolding with purpose.
