Not long ago, I came across a reel by Nam Nidham, a dedicated Kundalini Yoga teacher whose words resonated deeply with me. Nam Nidham is passionate about helping women heal their wounds and step into their authentic power with love and purpose. Her teachings, rooted in the ancient wisdom of Kundalini Yoga, focus on guiding women to reconnect with their true selves and balance the energies within.
Nam Nidham emphasizes the importance of integrated polarity (yin and yang) within a person. She explains that when there has been a missing or absent father figure—or even a dominant one—it can shift the balance toward the feminine side, making it challenging to assert oneself in the world or set clear boundaries.
You can learn more about Nam Nidham’s work and explore her transformative teachings on her website: www.namnidham.com.
The Importance of Masculine Energy
The masculine energy (yang) is closely tied to our 3rd chakra (Manipura), located at the navel. This is the seat of personal power, identity, and self-confidence. While the feminine energy (yin) resides in the heart, nourishing connection and intuition, the masculine energy provides the vital force, ego strength (in its healthy state), and confidence to propel us forward.
Nam Nidham beautifully explains how healing and empowering this energy can help you:
- Project yourself in the world with clarity and purpose.
- Set boundaries and protect your energy.
- Develop a sense of security in your identity and personal power.
- Align with your inner strength to manifest your goals and navigate life with vitality.
If your father’s role in your life has left gaps in this area, consciously working on this aspect of yourself can be transformative.
Strengthening the Yang Energy
To nurture your yang energy, focusing on the solar plexus chakra is essential. Practices like yoga, breathwork, and meditative techniques can help channel energy into this area. Kundalini Yoga, with its dynamic kriyas and meditations, is especially powerful for awakening this energy. Supporting this process with intentional tools, like a japa mala, can further amplify the work.
Introducing the Coral, Tiger Eye & Calcite Japa Mala
Inspired by these teachings, Tammy designed a stunning 108-bead japa mala for my shop to help balance the yin and yang within you. This mala is crafted to align with the first three chakras, the foundation of your identity and personal power:
- Red Coral: Grounds you through the root chakra, providing stability and strength.
- Tiger Eye: Bridges the sacral and solar plexus chakras, inspiring creativity, motivation, and focus.
- Yellow Calcite: Activates the solar plexus chakra, boosting self-confidence, willpower, and clarity.
- Two shades of light wood beads complete the design, symbolizing natural balance and harmony.
Each bead is carefully knotted by hand, ensuring durability and mindfulness in every detail. This japa mala is a powerful companion for mantra practice, helping you reconnect with your masculine energy and find balance within.
Embrace Your Empowered Self
Nam Nidham’s wisdom reminds us that self-empowerment begins with healing and integrating our energies. Whether through intentional practices like Kundalini Yoga, reflection, or tools like the Coral, Tiger Eye & Calcite Japa Mala, the journey to balance is one of love and strength.
You can find this special mala in my shop, a piece designed not just for meditation but as a symbol of your journey to reclaim your personal power and project your authentic self into the world.

To practice, hold the mala in your right hand. For each mantra, move to the next bead, repeating the mantra 108 times. As you reach the last bead, feel the energy of your words flow through you, bringing balance and empowerment.
