It occurs to me that the 'neurological seizures' you mention
may well be a (side-effect?) 'result' of the phenom you have identified as your 'kundalini' awakening.
It also occurs to me that the 'practices' you describe in the second quote above have a good chance of (A→B) serving to
intensify the 'kundalini'
seizure (i.e. 'B') phenom you mention wanting to find a way to eliminate (cure?).
In case my above two
hypotheses are 'correct', I wish to point out the ill-logic of thinking/feeling/believing that repeating more of A will lead to anything other than more of B.
Also,
in case I am 'right' in the later regard, I would like to suggest that you focus on identifying and contemplate behaviorally modifying the factors which keep you
invested in repeating said practices, thinking/feeling/believing that your personal power and efficacy at doing them is a 'sign' of something special (about 'you') maybe, or that "going into and out of trance states, often finding myself staring at 'nothing' for hours while my hands are doing auto-mudras, seeking to improve function of the connection between my amygdala and prefrontal cortex in regards to the conversion of emotion" is
as desirable a 'result' as you think-n-feel-n-believe it to be. Not saying it is, just saying there
may be a 'seizure' 'price' you 'pay' for it, and that more conventional (i.e. modern medical science prescribed)
anti-'seizure'
may have
functional (in terms of Quality-of-Life-
in-'the-world'-Experience)
benefits worth (re?)considering, despite the 'slow down' associated therewith not being as spiritually 'sexy' (i.e. 'exciting').
Just throw what's said above in the trash if you deside it's off point and so not worth considering.
