‘As you massage, stretch the bonds of your ordinary conceptions. When you press a certain body point, no part of the body and in fact no part of the universe, need be excluded. Everything can become part of the massage. From a cosmological point of view, absolutely everything participates in the cosmos, and we and the universe are integrated.’
– Tarthang Tulku, Kum Nye Tibetan Yoga
This course will introduce the basic theory and develop the foundational practices of Kum Nye Relaxation, as presented by Tarthang Tulku in the text Kum Nye Tibetan Yoga. The practice of Kum Nye includes stillness and movement, breath, and self-massage.
Each term, through Late Spring of 2025, will highlight a different area of practice. This term will place a special focus on Kum Nye massage practice. A significant part of our Kum Nye text is devoted to Kum Nye massage, but it is often not practiced with the same regularity as the movement exercises are. There is so much to discover through Kum Nye massage!
This course is appropriate for those new to Kum Nye Relaxation, as well as those wishing to continue to deepen their understanding and embodiment of Kum Nye.
