Kundalini awakening is a spiritual process in which dormant energy, often depicted as a coiled serpent, is believed to rise through the chakras, or energy centers, in the body. This awakening can lead to heightened awareness, increased energy, and a deeper connection to oneself and the universe. Practices such as yoga, meditation, and breath control are commonly used to facilitate this awakening. While some individuals report profound experiences, others may encounter challenges, such as emotional upheaval or physical discomfort, as the energy moves through the body.
