INTRODUCTION
All of the sets in this manual have been created to strengthenthe nervous system and stimulate the glandular system. These setsare considered intermediate in difficulty and should be done by
students who have had some previous instruction in Kundalini Yoga.The concept of this manual came from Yogi Bhajan's saYing, ''Yourbody is the vehicle of God-a truth machine. So keep it in tune!"
Yogi Bhajan teaches that the glands are the guardians of thebody. Glandular good health are integral to each person's physicaland mental well-being. We hope that this manual will help you toachieve optimal glandular health.
