Yogi Bhajan, who brought kundalini yoga to the world starting in the 1960s, said that health was just beauty. It is an outer reflection of proper nutrition & good physical condition. Things like rosy cheeks or clear skin are just signs of well-functioning circulation or a parasympathetic nervous system, etc.
Therefore, the makeup/beauty industry is just an outer attempt to demonstrate inner health & arguably a waste of time. Your emotional health directly impacts your physical health, so spiritual values like peace, kindness, compassion & forgiveness just make you look hotter. That’s why beauty has been so glorified: it’s a sign of health on all levels.
As a kundalini yogi, you can learn to completely control & command your glandular system, health & emotions. Commanding your internal health & accepting your natural radiance.
Everything created by “God” or whatever you want to call it is impossibly beautiful, & we can live in vast daily appreciation of all that is.
The “Whole Foods” (not knocking Jeff Bezos) industrial complex is, as Mark Singleton puts it, “unchurched Protestant religiosity,” meaning that the wellness industry has overlaid the guilt complexes of leisure-class white femininity onto your health & wellness. Don’t feel guilty, learn how to feel better & then your health/beauty will really mean something.
Yogi Bhajan said if you just feel your feelings, they’ll leave in 15 seconds. Emotions are information. Repression is where problems come in. Our word for free feminine energy is “shakti” & it is essentially confidence.
Radiance comes from self-trust & being able to find your center,
