Energy is continuously being channeled through our bodies, from cell to cell, between mind and body, as well as between ourselves and the world around us. As we move and experience, even as we breathe, the energies within and around us continuously interact…Our physical bodies are much less solid than they seem. They are not fixed and impervious ‘objects’, but essentially flowing and open, participating in an ongoing process of ’embodiment’ of energies.’ (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.
This term will place a special focus on practices in the final section of our text, Stimulating and Transforming Energies. We will sample practices from all three stages of this part of the book.
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.
