Kundalini yoga, only recently practiced in the west, is a very ancient form of yoga which draws up the untapped energy, or prana, from the base of the spine to each of the seven chakras, awakening the body energetically. Complete enlightenment occurs when this energy reaches the Crown Chakra. For more information on chakras, I've added a link below.
Kundalini yoga poses are done in a series, with a specific breath that intensifies the effects of the poses. This frees the energy in the lower body and allows it to move upward to the crown chakra. Kundalini poses done in a sequence consist of rapid, repetitive movements done with breath or holding a pose while breathing in a particular way.
Certain gemstones are also thought to help balance the chakras and can be worn as jewelry.

Should You Practice Kundalini Yoga?
A more spiritual form of yoga, Kundalini yoga goes beyond physical practice of the poses of yoga and emphasizes breathing, meditation, and chanting. However, just because Kundalini is more spiritual, doesn’t mean it is less physically challenging! The Kundalini sequences are very intense physically.
