Awakening the Sacred Body: Tibetan Yogas of Breath and Movement - Paperback

by Tenzin Wangyal Rinpoche (Author)

The power of the breath has been recognized for millennia as an integral part of health and well-being. In Awakening the Sacred Body, teacher Tenzin Wangyal Rinpoche makes accessible the ancient art of Tibetan breath and movement practices.

In clear, easy-to-understand language, he outlines the theory and processes of two powerful meditations--the Nine Breathings of Purification and the Tsa Lung movements--that can help you change your relationship to yourself, to others, and to the world.

The simple methods presented in Awakening the Sacred Body and in the accompanying online video focus on clearing and opening your energetic centers to allow the natural human qualities of love, compassion, joy, and equanimity to arise. When sadness releases, joy is able to arise. When anger releases, love becomes available.

When prejudice releases, equanimity prevails. And when lack of kindness ceases, compassion is present.These practices, which focus the mind and breath together while performing specific body movements, will help you discover your inner wisdom and express your greatest potential.
