An ancient Tibetan prophecy tells the story that during times of great global crisis, enlightened beings will rise to heal the world from within. The “Walk for Peace” monks and their loyal companion, Aloka, are such modern day Shambhala Warriors, emerging among us with wisdom in one hand and compassion in the other. Likewise, our weekly bootcamp has become a sanctuary for those seeking peace from within. As we sit, stand, and exercise, we focus on our bodies and breathe to keep anxiety and pain from metastasizing into mental suffering. In order to bring harmony to our bodies, Qi, and mind and to shield ourselves from physical and emotional harm, we practice joint exercise, Qi massage, stretching, abdominal breathing, and loving-kindness (Metta) meditation. Please join us to start your peaceful day.
