I did my routine of yoga class on the beach. Afterwards,i did a meditation at home. For the past week or so I've felt some energy in the heart center. My heart has been closed and I can feel that center opening. It felt expansive and love radiating.
So, I haven't been drinking because I'm not a big drinker. I prefer sober and yoga and meditation. But today, there was so much ecstasy and I felt so high and light that I though it would be a good time for a glass of wine.
But the wine seemed to... Like... Put out the fire that was rising. The chest and heart area got kind of numb. I felt relaxed which is fine, but not lifted and energized like I was before the glass.
Has this happened to anyone? Why does alcohol do this? I think i have no desire to drink anymore. Any similar experiences or advice. Please.
To be honest, I don't even know if what I've been experience is kundalini. I just feel a fire or energy. It brings clarity and calm (once it caused panic). That's what I Like
.
Thanks! |

Do what you feel. Alcohol is neither good or bad.
It has specific effects on the nervous system, they might be advantageous sometimes and not others. It definitely puts the kibosh on rising ecstasy. |

Alcohol is a central nervous system depressant. The nervous system is the doorway to the Infinite. Therefore, it makes sense that an artificial tweaking of the delicate circuitry would not be conducive to a natural flow of ecstasy through the channels. It's kind of like banging a hammer on computer hardware and wondering why the software doesn't work. Tried that for many years, and glad to be free of it.
Sounds like you're already way ahead of the curve if the natural pleasure you're feeling is dampened by the artifice of alcohol. Alcohol is only pleasurable when we're at a low level of consciousness. At higher levels of consciousness, the sensory effect is dissatisfactory, as you describe.  |

Yep, I'm experiencing similar lately. I can normally drink pretty heavily without much downside. But lately it just feels heavy in my body, like tamasic sludge coursing through my bloodstream and brain cells. 
I say welcome the change and enjoy the ride!
