The yogi: Hayley Cutler
The location: Black Palace Beach, Oman
The pose: Kundalini Lotus
The benefits: Besides opening the hips, this pose helps to awaken the dormant energy (known as kundalini) at the base of the spine, and transfer this vitality up your chakras. The posture balances your 2nd and 6th chakras and boosts your sensual energy. This is a grounding pose, ideal for calming those with whimsical or flighty tendencies. Kundalini Lotus is also said to enhance your intuition levels by tapping into your Third Eye.
About the yogi: Hayley is a qualified Kundalini yoga teacher who has also studied Theta Healing and Reiki. “The journey finding Kundalini has changed my life beyond words,” says Hayley. “It is the greatest gift I have ever given myself this far in my life. Through this practice I have transformed and healed deep-rooted issues that may have taken many years to resolve. It has given me the one thing that money can’t buy and that’s the deepest peace I could ever ask for. I now have a beautiful calm space inside of me that I can connect to at will.” Hayley, who lives in Dubai, says this type of yoga has enhanced her perception levels: “I have a connection to myself and the universe like nothing I had before.” When Hayley isn’t finding bliss on her mat, she reads holistic-inspired books, performs with her dance troupe and does stilt walking for events like the F1 in Abu Dhabi.
