Tulku Lobsang offers consultations both in his capacity as a doctor of Tibetan Medicine and as a spiritual advisor. Consultations generally begin with a pulse reading, whereby the state of the organs and blood and life fluids is assessed. In this way, the presence or early manifestation of disease can be sensed. Tulku Lobsang will offer advice on countering imbalance with diet, exercise, breath or meditation techniques. One may also come with specific questions of a psychological or spiritual nature.

Lu means body and Jong means training or transformation. Through the practice of Lu Jong we begin to train our subtle body channels and cultivate awareness. This is the way to care for the body and mind. This is Tibetan healing yoga.

Lu Jong works simultaneously with body, mind and energy. We balance the elements and humors—the foundation of the physical body. We transform our negative emotions, and we invigorate the subtle body system of channels and wind-energy. The result is a beautiful, efficient and systematic practice that improves our wellbeing in all dimensions.

When we do Lu Jong we combine form, movement and breath. This combination, along with mindfulness, brings body and mind fully together. We use form and movement to repeatedly apply pressure to particular points on the channels, massaging blockages open. We gently work with the spine, creating space around the vertebrae and touching secret points to release emotional blocks. We nurture the joints, releasing the blockages that otherwise would manifest disease. And using breath and awareness develops an inner calm, a true meditation in movement.

The movements of Lu Jong originate from ancient Tibetan teachings. However, this practice is uniquely connected to Tulku Lobsang. From a young age he studied with many masters in Tibet, learning these healing movements from all lineages. He collected them into a clear, concise practice, and modified them to be more accessible to untrained, Western bodies. The result is nothing short of profound. Lu Jong can be practiced by people of all ages and abilities and the benefits are felt immediately. Continuous practice can really change your life.

The Lu Jong practice is a series of body movements that developed more than 8000 years ago in Tibet. Lu Jong originates in the Buddhist Tantrayana and Bön traditions and it is based on Tibetan Medicine.
Tibetan Medicine understands that diseases are the consequence of imbalanced elements and humors (the vital substances of the body). Through the combination of position, movement and breath, Lu Jong opens the channels in the body and mobilizes misdirected energy. In this way, the practice of Lu Jong helps to cultivate balance on the physical, mental and energetic levels.

On the physical level, the movements support the healing processes and also effectively combat disease. With regular practice we become more flexible, strong and improve our overall vitality.
On a mental level, Lu Jong helps us overcome negative emotions like anger and craving in order to achieve emotional balance and increase our energy. Through the exercises of Lu Jong we can influence the mind in such a way that it becomes free and compassionate. Our well being, awareness of our body and inner sensitivity, as well as our power of concentration and clarity are strengthened.
On an energetic level, Lu Jong releases blockages and opens the subtle body channels. Reestablishing the proper flow of energy has profound consequences for the health of both body and mind. And when we open our channels, we open our hearts.

This form of Lu Jong originates in the lineage of Tulku Lobsang, who introduced the practice of Lu Jong to the West. Prior to this, he received many years of teachings from masters of different Tibetan Buddhist schools. In this way, he was able to collect these precious exercises and modify them to adapt to Western needs. The result is an extensive program of physical movements, which bring our bodies and minds into balance. The practice of Lu Jong is suitable for all ages and physical abilities. While the movements of Lu Jong are simple, they can surely change your life.

This seminar is a special opportunity to learn the wonderful practice of Lu Jong from Tulku Lobsang himself.

This seminar is divided in 3 Groups with different exercices in each one. Please tell us in which one you want to participate.

Tulku Lobsang offers consultations both in his capacity as a Tibetan medical doctor and as a spiritual counselor.
Consultations usually begin with a pulse diagnosis. This examines the state of organs, blood and humors. In this way chronic diseases can be diagnosed. Tulku Lobsang gives advice for dealing with imbalances through nutrition, movement and breathing or meditation techniques. It is also possible to ask Tulku Lobsang questions related to the practice itself.

Feeling compassion for one oneself and for others in times of deep personal grief and pain will transform your life. We all need love and the moment we start to understand love in all its dimensions, we begin to cultivate it from within ourselves.
Self-care and self-compassion are the first steps to gradually become more compassionate and self-confident.  In contrast perhaps to our belief that self-care and compassion can make us weak and vulnerable, they generate a very firm and stable inner base. Compassion is by nature gentle and peaceful but at the same time also very powerful. It helps to remove all fears and insecurities.  It gives us the courage to cope with any kind of obstacle we encounter.
In this workshop you will receive a series of guided meditation for the cultivation of the “Four Immeasurables”: loving-kindness, compassion,  joy, and equanimity.  The practice of the Four Immeasurables opens your heart step by step and cultivates a deep warmhearted feeling. You will also learn how to bring this experience into your daily life through the practice of Tibetan Mind training. If you develop a sincere and open heart, you will naturally feel more self- worth and self-confidence. This will change your world! Through the  cultivation of compassion you will be more relaxed, you will overcome depression and loneliness. You will be healthier and you will have better relationships. It is the key to a happier world!
