''Awakening the Sacred Body'' brings the ancient art of Tibetan breathing practices to the mainstream. Teacher Tenzin Wangyal Rinpoche outlines the theory and process of two powerful meditations - the Nine Breathings of Purification and the Tsa Lung movements - that can help you change the way you think, feel and experience the world. The simple methods presented in ''Awakening the Sacred Body'' and on the accompanying DVD focus on clearing and opening your energetic centers to allow the natural human qualities of love, compassion, joy and equanimity to bloom. These practices, which bring the mind and breath together with specific body movements, can help you connect to your inner wisdom and achieve a relaxed yet aware state of mind.
