"The Kundalini Yoga Meditation Video for Obsessive Compulsive Disorder" by David Shannahoff-Khalsa. This is exactly the same protocol that I taught in my highly successful workshops at the 157th, 158th, 159th 160th, 161st, 163rd, 164th and 165th workshops at the American Psychiatric Association Annual Conferences, and also at the 156th Annual American Psychiatric Association Conference, Symposium on OCD, May 21, 2003, San Francisco, CA, and the 7th and 8th Annual Obsessive Compulsive Foundation Conferences respectively in Chicago (August 11, 2000) and Denver (July 22, 2001). The protocol is effective for all varieties of obsessions and compulsions, including hoarding, and is applicable to all degrees of severity, and with individuals who have failed treatment (medications, Behavioral Therapy) in the past.

This protocol was previously published in complete written detail in a chapter in a mainstream OCD medical text Shannahoff-Khalsa, DS, Yogic Techniques are Effective in the Treatment of Obsessive Compulsive Disorders, In: Eric Hollander & Dan Stein, eds., Obsessive-Compulsive Disorders Diagnosis, Etiology, and Treatment, Marcel Dekker Inc., New York, pp. 283-329, 1997.

The complete OCD protocol is also now described in detail along with 5 additional meditation techniques in - Shannahoff-Khalsa, D.S., Kundalini Yoga meditation techniques in the treatment of obsessivecompulsive and OC spectrum disorders, Brief Treatment and Crisis Intervention, 3:369-382 (2003). This publication also reviews both of my clinical trials and includes a single case history for a woman (in her own words) for the effects of brief treatment. This article can be downloaded with Adobe Acrobat by clicking here. This OCD specific protocol is also now published in my 2006 professional book: Shannahoff-Khalsa DS, Kundalini Yoga Meditation: Techniques Specific for Psychiatric Disorders, Couples Therapy, and Personal Growth, W. W. Norton & Company, New York, London, 2006, and in Shannahoff-Khalsa DS, Sacred Therapies: The Kundalini Yoga Meditation Handbook for Mental Health. W. W. Norton & Company, New York, London, 2012.

For those of you who may not be familiar with our results, our patients finished the clinical trials with a 71% mean improvement on the Yale - Brown Obsessive CompulsiveScale. The study was funded by the National Institutes of Health and published in Shannahoff-Khalsa, DS, Ray LE, Levine, S, Gallen, CC, Schwartz, BJ, Sidorowich, JJ, Randomized Controlled Trial of Yogic Meditation Techniques for Patients with Obsessive Compulsive Disorders, CNS Spectrums: The International Journal of Neuropsychiatric Medicine, vol 4, no. 12, pp 34-46, 1999 (see clicking here).

This video is now available for purchase and it is intended for use by those who suffer with OCD and/or other anxiety-related disorders, stress, anger, or fear. Specific techniques (all performed while sitting in a chair) are taught for OCD, a range of anxiety disorders, and also one specific for managing fear and one for anger. By viewing the video you can learn to do the protocol exactly as it should be taught and for daily practice. This video is also extremely beneficial for therapists who have patients that are "treatment resistant" to medication and/or refuse Cognitive Behavior Therapy. By viewing the 11 different meditation techniques and how they are to be practiced, someone with no experience whatsoever in yoga or meditation can now learn to practice the techniques that have shown to be highly efficacious under rigorously controlled scientific conditions.
