In this episode I travel to deepest of Wales to visit Drala Jong, the headquarters and retreat centre of the Aro gTér sect of Tibetan Buddhism. Ngakchang Rinpoche and Khandro Déchen give a tour of the grounds of Drala Jong, discuss the esoteric geomancy of the site, and reveal the methods used to identify and propitiate the local spirit of the land. Ngakchang Rinpoche and Khandro Déchen detail the methods and practices of the Aro gTér, guide practice sessions in the Dzogchen meditation of sky gazing and other techniques, and tell stories of their lamas such as Kunzang Dorje Rinpoche, Chimé Rigdzin Rinpoche, Dudjom Rinpoche, and more.

In dieser Episode spricht Ninia mit Curse. Ninia ist mit der Musik von Curse zur Schule gegangen und hatte lange nicht auf dem Schirm, dass er sich auch mit dem Thema mentale Gesundheit auskennt.

Deshalb wollten wir von Curse wissen: Wie sorge ich für meine mentale Gesundheit?
"The clarity of the mind is nothing other than how you see, how you hear, how you feel… Yes, wisdom is transcendent, but you can open to it through the body"Welcome to this new episode of Science & Wisdom LIVE. Our guest today is Jason Upton, an existential psychotherapist and senior lecturer at Regent's University. Jason is also doing a PhD at SOAS on early Tibetan Buddhist practices which involve the body and sense perception. He has practised Kum Nye and other Tibetan movement practices for over 17 years. Today, he enters in conversation with Scott Snibbe on ways to become embodied again. Jason will discuss his own experience with trauma, the benefits of Kum Nye, a Tibetan form of movement therapy, and his PhD research on the connection between the mind and the body.

In der Meditation lernen wir unseren Geist, unsere Gedanken zu beobachten. Wir lernen uns quasi selbst ein bisschen besser kennen. Und das hilft uns dann im Alltag Situationen so zu begegnen wie sie wirklich sind, abseits von unseren Ego Filtern und aus ihnen resultierenden negativen Gefühlen, was wiederum unser Leben um so vieles einfacher macht. In der "Lass dein Licht scheinen“ Meditation lade ich dich ein, dich mit deinen Gefühlen, deinem Potenzial, deinem ganzen Licht zu verbinden und es scheinen lassen - Für dich und andere Menschen. Es ist das größte Geschenk, das du dir selber und anderen machen kannst. Mehr Infos findest du unter: www.sarahdesai.de www.facebook.com/sarahdesai-themindfulsessions Instagram @sarah.desai
