Lu Jong, Tibetan Healing Yoga
Lu Jong is an old Tibetan practice of the tradition of Tantrayana and Bön. It is based on Tibetan medicine, which assumes that diseases are the consequence of an imbalance of the elements or humours. Through the combination of position, movement and breath Lu Jong can open physical channels and blocks in a soft way and mobilize misdirected energy. In this way our physical health, mental clarity and vitality are improved.

Tog Chöd is a combination of powerful physical exercises which are done with a wooden sword. The goal of the exercises is to reduce fear and expectation, to dissolve mental imprints and overcome negative emotions. Tog Chöd is a powerful technique for overcoming the state of thinking und for remaining in a quiet state of mind. This makes it an ideal practice before meditation.
