The arts of India, Tibet, Nepal, and Bhutan display a rich stylistic diversity. However, these Himalayan regions share many symbols and important figures in their arts. Dating from the first millennium, Himalayan art is part of the Buddhist tradition. It is beyond decorative or fine arts and thus is sacred art.
We've been practicing, teaching and recommending the 5 Tibetan Energy Rejuvenation Exercises since 1998. You can do the whole routine in 15 minutes and only need enough floor space for your body while laying down and enough air space for your arms to be outstretched. The 5 Tibetans represent a great way to keep your body in shape when you have limited time for a physical workout or limited space for a complete yoga routine. You can easily do the exercises in the space at the foot of the bed in most hotel rooms. We use the 5 Tibetans as a warm up for our morning yoga or body workout. How do I begin to benefit from the 5 Tibetans?
