Summary

Tibetan medicine is one of the world's most ancient and sophisticated systems of healing. In The Tibetan Art of Living, Christopher Hansard guides us into its uniquely empowering worldview. His deep personal experience comes from having studied and mastered this system of medicine since he was four years old, and also through his extensive clinical practice. Drawn from Tibetan Bøn tradition, Hansard's journey leads us to a new and enlightened level of discovery. The principles to achieve ultimate health are applied to mind, body, and soul. The Tibetan approach relates our emotional state with our physical one, so that we learn how to improve our inner as well as our outer lives. We are our own best healers. Hansard shows us many simple ways we can include Tibetan Bøn wisdom and spirituality in our everyday lives, from dietary guidelines, massage, and rejuvenation techniques to mind-strengthening skills, soul medicine, and Tibetan herbal wisdom for common ailments. This is the first book to help us bring this age-old wisdom into our everyday lives.It is both a practical and spiritual bible in the Tibetan art of living.
