I wanted to share one of the exercises we did in class today called The Five Tibetan Rites: Exercises for healing, Rejuvenation, and Longevity -- five simple exercises that can be done in mere minutes -- an exercise program used by Tibetan monks to live long, vibrant and healthy lives. The exercises come from a book called The Ancient Secret of the Fountain of Youth by Peter Kelder. You can easily look this information up on line. I included them in class because The Five Rites speed up the spinning of the chakras, coordinate their spin so they are in complete harmony, distribute pure prana energy to the endocrine system, and in turn to all organs and processes in the body.
I am committing to adding these Five exercises to my own practice -- and I hope you will join me in this and weigh in on how you're doing. C'mon Commit! You know you wanna!
The little smiling Buddha in the photograph is one my friend, Chris, made for me. He's wearing a shawl of my eight wrist bands after the completion of my first year of the eight chakras. The bands are just embroidery thread tied around the wrist that serve as a reminder of the deep process and journey you are on.
We will be in Chakra 1, Muladhadra -- the ground of us -- for 45 days.
The building can't rise without the base.
Begin a practice, reach for something just outside your comfort zone.
Make an altar, use a red cloth or candle or flower.
Plant a seed, a bulb, an intention...
