The basic cause of diseases are negative emotions. Often we have heard that every human being has the power for self healing. But mostly we are quite skeptical with those statements. Tulku Lobsang gives an explanation how we can reach our happiness by overcoming the negative emotions. For this we have to learn how to use our innate healing energies, to overcome diseases or to remain healthy. The power of our mind and our thoughts can change the well-being of our body fundamentally. In daily life we continuously worry, have fears and expectations which are not fulfilled. These negative emotions have a direct influence on our body. We learn how to evoke positive emotions for reaching mental and physical health. In Traditional Tibetan Medicine we assume that there is medicine which supports the body to become healthy. But at the end it is the self healing power which has to be activated. Because it is only the body which can heal itself.

Tulku Lobsang offers consultations. In his capacity as doctor of Tibetan medicine and as spiritual advisor he gives consultations. 

Consultations mainly start with a pulse diagnosis. In doing so the condition of the organs, the blood and the humours are examined. in this way chronic diseases can be diagnosed. Tulku Lobsang gives advises to treat imbalances through nutrition, movement and breath or meditation techniques. It is as well possible to ask Tulku Lobsang questions regarding the own practice.

Tsa Lung works with the body and the breath. It is a technique that combines movements with breath retention in order to release blockages in the subtle body.

The health of our subtle body is of primary importance to the health of our physical body and the happiness of our mind. The subtle body is composed of channels (tsa) and the wind-energy (lung) and essence that flow through them. Blockages in the channels cause imbalances in our body systems as vital nutrients, oxygen and blood don’t flow properly. These blockages also cause energetic and mental blockages. Unless we actively nurture our subtle body, everyday we lose some channels. Fortunately, Tantrayana Buddhism has developed powerful methods to open our channels and make them clear and supple.

Tsa Lung is a practice that works intensively with our subtle body. By combining special breath retention techniques with physical movements and visualizations, we move our wind-energy throughout the body, allowing it to reach deep places and open more and more subtle channels. When the wind flows freely, this energy can be used for self-healing or can be given to others.

This physical practice is very dynamic and powerful. And breath retention makes it even more challenging. However, it is very important that we train the breath. As we become older our breathing becomes more and more shallow. Therefore, we need to relearn how to breathe deeply. And when the breath flows, the mind flows. This is a method for coming into a deep stillness of the mind.

In this retreat, Tulku Lobsang will share a complete practice that will prepare the body and breath. This practice can then be built upon as one develops more experience.
