Activate the subtle body

Activating the Wisdom of the Body

Tenzin Wangyal Rinpoche is one of the great ambassadors of Tibetan culture in the West. He comes from the Bön tradition, which combines Buddhist elements with shamanic practices. This tradition possesses a deep understanding of the subtle energy flows of the body and how to direct them for cleansing and revitalization. The author demonstrates simple breathing exercises, visualizations, and body postures, explaining how they can be used to cleanse the subtle channels of the body. In this way, negative emotional states such as anger and other energetic blockages can be transformed. With the help of Bön techniques, we learn to dissolve hindering behavioral patterns, transform confusion into wisdom, and ultimately arrive at the fresh, unburdened experience that exists in every moment. We come to experience our original consciousness, which is nothing but open vastness.
