Tibetan Mountain Body Movements

Lama Lobsang

Lu-Jong was developed in ancient times for hermits living in remote mountain areas in Tibet. Living far from any medical help, they developed remarkable techniques for self-healing. A whole assortment of body movements arose, each working on specific channels, meridians, reflex zones, organs, or body parts. By practising the proper movements, it is possible to restore balance to the life fluids and elements in the body, to open and close the appropriate channels and as a result regain health. In this introductory workshop you will learn the five element exercises. In Tibetan medicine the five elements are earth, water, wind, fire and space. * They are easy for beginners, as they are practised according to your own flexibility * They all work on the spine, helping to strengthen it and straighten the posture * It takes around 10 minutes to do the whole routine * Regular practise will reinforce general strength and vitality, improve circulation, calm the mind, and instil a sense of well-being. Lama Lobsang will finish the afternoon by leading a meditation. This can be practised regularly after your exercises and will help you prepare for the day with mindfulness and loving kindness. Admission £30 (concessions £20) Private consultations: On Sunday 10th June Lama Lobsang will give private Tibetan Medicine consultations at the Centre.
