Book Description
Kum Nye is a simple but precise regime that guarantees to significantly increase energy levels, improve fitness and strengthen and tone the body. Based on a system developed in Tibet over thousands of years this book is the first to bring the techniques to the WEst as a highly accessible and brilliantly effective package. Kum Nye consists of 8 positions to be held in sequence for up to 2 minutes. Each position is specifically designed to work on different areas of the body, while developing overall strength and flexibility. But, most importantly, these moves will increase energy levels, stamina and vitality. Such is their efficacy that they must not be done before going to sleep! But should be performed first thing as a truly invigorating morning wake up. Unlike any other kind of exercise system this can be mastered by anyone - regardless of age and fitness and, as a trained chiropodist, Wright lays emphasis on the benefits of this technique for people suffering from back pain and old injuries. Originally use to prepare Tibetan soldiers for war, this ancient science is guaranteed to wake up even the sleepiest of sleepy heads.

Book Description
Sitting still in meditation may be the common image that comes to mind when one thinks of Buddhist practice—but just as important is cultivation of awareness through movement. The traditional Tibetan practice of yogic exercises known as lujong helps us connect with and explore the natural wisdom inherent in our living, breathing, feeling bodies. Lujong is an exercise that engages our whole being—body, mind, and subtle body—from the coarse aspects to the subtler and more profound. This book provides a thorough foundation for those new to the practice, and it helps people already engaged in any form of yogic exercise to deepen the potent fusion of meditation and physical movement. Included is an overview of the unique tradition of Buddhist yoga, along with instructions on how to work with the body and mind in seated meditation; tips for furthering our practice by working with adversities such as fear, procrastination, and anxiety; and guidance on bringing practice mind into daily life. The author also offers exercise instructions and a complete explanation of the movement practices, with photos to illustrate.
