The ancient system of
Kundalini yoga includes a vast array of meditation techniques and many
were discovered to be specific for treating the psychiatric disorders as
we know them today. One such technique was found to be specific for
treating obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD), the fourth most common
psychiatric disorder, and the tenth most disabling disorder worldwide. Two
published clinical trials are described here for treating OCD using a
specific Kundalini yoga protocol. This OCD protocol also includes
techniques that are useful for a wide range of anxiety disorders, as well
as a technique specific for learning to manage fear, one for tranquilizing
an angry mind, one for meeting mental challenges, and one for turning
negative thoughts into positive thoughts. Part of that protocol is
included here and published in detail elsewhere. In addition, a number of
other disorder-specific meditation techniques are included here to help
bring these tools to the attention of the medical and scientific
community. These techniques are specific for phobias, addictive and
substance abuse disorders, major depressive disorders, dyslexia, grief,
insomnia and other sleep disorders.
