Love your very gentle and kind way of teaching these amazing rites authentically. Your excellent modifications are rarely found on other videos. You look the picture of health yourself which is inspiring as well. Greetings and immense gratitude to you from Down Under 🌸💮🌸
I'm over 60 and have practiced yoga on and off for a couple of decades. After being relatively sedentary for the last couple of years I was surprised how my strength and flexibility had diminished. I really appreciate your tips and modifications. I'm in my second week of practicing the 5 tibetan rites Much gratitude for your video and reminding us that we need to care for our bodies. 🌺
I’ve had the book Fountain of Youth for several years. I did the rites for a whole year a long while back. Shocked my chiropractor when he re- X-rayed my neck and SAW that I now had a curve in my flat neck. He’d never seen that happen before. After all that, I stopped doing the rites….. why….? Your video has inspired me to begin again. I am teaming up with my youngest daughter who is very eager to do them. We will hold each other accountable. And I will watch your video again and again and again. You are so kind, encouraging, and loving. Thank you.
Thank you Queen, I am so appreciative of this video sooo much...I keep having to start & stop doing the 5 tibetans because I'm recovering from spine issues & now I see how I can do it without exacerbating the situation ...Love & thanks🙏🏽
It is my experience that they regulate the nervous system. It is very helpful to focus on the breath while doing them. So excited for you. Love and Light.
I did these rites in the 90’s into the early 2000’s. My father did them daily and passed at the age of 97. Thank you for this video. I had forgotten. I will commit to these and improve my life in general once again.
I'm receiving this video 3 years after it has been posted. This is the first time I have ever done anything like this. You look so graceful in your movements, and I am sure that I look like a fish out of water... Thank you for your time and effort in making a great video! 😊
Hi James, thank you for your kind words. I made a video after this one for people who need more support to do the 5 Tibetan Rites. You might find it helpful as a warm up.... Go slow, dont push. .... Yet consistency will show growth. Blessings on your journey. Lenna🌿
Best 5 Tibetan UA-cam video! Thank you! Beautifully presented. loved emphasis on connecting with body. And working with resistance with grace and respect.
Your the best instructor I've come by out of all the teachers on UA-cam.There's one very important element I encourage you to stress more.Very important to breath in concert with the movements.One loses 80% of the benefits when proper breathing is not incorporated.Your an awesome teacher,I'm learning a lot from your sharing.😊
Hi Chinelo, Thank you for your awesome feedback. I just posted another video last week. I did speak about the breath more, but maybe not enough. Let me know your thoughts. Blessings, Lenna
Thank you for this lovely practice~and especially the gentle reminder that this is not a competition~ I remember that my yoga mentor often reminded us of this.
Thank you, I have have seen many videos now on the 5 Tibetans and been daunted by how I could achieve the exercises. You have given so many examples of how to move gently to the end goal that I feel I can make a start.
I am 81 years old and I am practising the 5 tibetans since more than 20 years every morning and have not been ill besides some minor colds. I can only recommand these exercises
Hi Fiona, thank you again for your comment. I hope this finds you well. I just put out another video and I thought there might be parts in it that would support you. Blessings, Lenna
Just getting back from hip replace surgery and I loved your workout. Could Only do 10 minutes but I loved it can’t wait to be able to finish it completely thank you so much I’m so glad I found you
I'm so glad I found your video! I just learned of the 5 and tried them, failing so hard lol! But I am excited to start the modifications and work my way up! Thank you!
Hi, thank you for your kind words....I made another video that are simple practices to help with the 5 rites. Consistancy is everything. Slow and steady. Blessings on your journey. 💚🌿💚
Thank you so much for showing modifications for some of us who needs to build strength first. Will you please advise what can be done to ease the load on the wrists when doing #4.
Hi, Thank you for your comment. Some suggestions for modification of #4 : 1, lay on your back and do hip raises (feet parallel and maybe a yoga block or a role of toilet paper between your knees) then add wrist stretches and slowly strengthen them by putting weight on them. It should never hurt. 2, Two thick books or yoga blocks under your hands with your fingers hanging off the blocks. This is challenging to explain…..but you are holding the side of the block so there is a redistribution of weight….if this doesn’t make sense I will try again. Blessings, Lenna
Yes i feel like that . I say to myself I'm tired and roll over to sleep. But lol the rites doesn't let me it makes me wake up. So everyday at 8 am I get up to do them I have stuck to this to time . Because I don't want my energy to be messed up when the clocks go back. I notice rites one was hard. But my mind got educated to show me . I needed a strong lower stomach core . Once I educated my brain it became easy . The last one is the most challenging to me .
Hi Rachael, Think of your wrist as having it's own alignment. We never want it to go past 90 degrees when it is feeling good. It is challenging for me to help without seeing but I can suggest to use 2 yoga blocks, thick books will work. Instead of the hand flat, cup the block. Your weight is on the palms but fingers face down. Allow your arms to be a couple of inches in front of your shoulders to make less of a wrist angle. 2. Do the last rite at an angle. Hold on to a counter, body at a 90 degree angle, then lean into the counter opening your heart. Pain is communication. Please listen, dont push. Also ligaments and tendons heal with cold.... Blessings, Lenna
Brilliant intro to the exercises for beginners (or all levels) great presentation. I can't put my hands flat due to Duprutyen's disease but I have adapted that with some push-up floor handles for now and I'll see how I can progress.
I also have been practicing for about 15 years but strangely enough the first time I started with just 7 reps I felt a powerful energy which I haven't felt since. I recently tried 30 reps but returned to 21x as I'm not sure if the benefits increase the more reps you do. Anyway , I liked your presentation which was very clear with a quick summary at the start and added info in the variations later, Nice!
Hi, thank you for your kind words. I have stuck to the 21 reps. There were times when I would do them in the morning and then the evening. Which I have enjoyed. Blessings
Hi Vicky, wanting to send gratitude for your comment and let you know I just put a new video out. Hoping to be supportive and inspire all of us to keep going….Love and Light, Lenna
To get the maximum benefits from the 5 Tibetans, it is very important to do the Deep Breathing method that goes along with them.We want to increase Life Force Energy throughout All the Chakra's.Breathing is done in concert with the movements.The 5 Tibetan have been practiced this way for 2,500 yrs.Breath is Life,it is what keeps us alive.😊❤️🙏
Hi, just saw your question. I might suggest that before you begin, practice a 4 count breath in, and a 4 count exhale. Find the rhythm and then begin to turn. Turn slowly continuously breathing this way. The other 4 rites I breath with each movement. Explore. I find that it is good to exhale when there is challenge. Example: in the second rite. Lower your legs on the exhale, lift them on the inhale. Blessings, enjoy 😊
Hi, pick one spot and start with only the amount of turns without feeling queasy. If only 3 times, just do 3 for a few days, then try 4. If 4 works, do 4 for a few days....etc. blessings...❤
Hi Susan, I hope this finds you well. ♥️ Thank you again for your kind comment. I wanted to let you know I finally posted a new video. 😄I hope it is helpful. Blessings, Lenna
Hi, I actually levitated when I was around 8 years old. I think because it was so spontaneous and I didn't know that "we don't do that". I didn't think about it until I was in my 40s when I recalled a past life in Egypt where I taught levitation. I think it is very possible and I know for myself that my focus is on being the Light and Love. Levitation can be a by product but not a focus for me. Blessings on your journey.
Please suggest breathing techniques for each posture. Should it be done with isometric method. Also , it is not clear where to take the breath such as focusing navel or chest or sacrum etc. thanks
Hi, great question. I suggest to focus on a continual breath. Inhaling and exhaling equally. You might notice the breath quicken when you are making more effort. On the 1st...continual breath no holding. 3 or 4 counts in, same out. On the 2nd...breath in while legs come up, exhale legs down. Here is more a chest breath so I can keep the abdominals in toward the spine. 3rd....inhale back, exhale forward. 4th....inhale up into table, exhale down. 5th...inhale up, exhale down dog. Again ....no holding, continual breath. Diaphram breath into chest is always a great focus while in movement. The abdominal muscles need to be activated to support the back. After you have finished , or between each rite...take a few breaths in the belly. Blessings ❤
Hi, could you please guide the breathing as you go through these or could you direct me to a video explaining the breath patterns we should aim at during these exercises. Many thanks. This is such an unintimidating and user-friendly video.
Before you begin try this....breath for 3 counts, hold for 3 counts, exhale for 3 counts. About 10 rounds. This will set you up for the breathing. The most important part is that you are breathing. The timing is to be felt...and it is best to exhale when the most effort is needed. I do them methodically, to feel myself. I hope this answers your question, enjoy.😊
Hi I am recovering from a nerve transplant on my left arm and I can’t really put much weight in my left wrist. How can I modify numbers 4 & 5? Thank you I’m advance!!!
Hi, I might suggest for the 4th rite. Lie on your back with your legs bent. Feet are parallel as with your knees. Place a yoga block....if you don't have one a role of toilet paper works great. Relax your upper body. Arms open to the side. 10 inches from your body. Palms up if you can. What ever your arm needs for most comfort. Feel your feet. Bring your belly to your spine and then lift your hips slowly.....keep the toilet paper from dropping as you raise and lower your hips. Start slow and build to 21. For number 5, depending on your injury....you might be able to go onto your forearms raising and lowering your hips slowly and carefully. Please do not put any weight on your arms if there is discomfort. Doing any form of forward bend then lengthening and reaching your arms upward might be good. Hanging from a pole or rope when the doctor says it is okay is amazing. I imagine you will be supported by some form of physical therapy for a while. I also recommend visualizing yourself doing them fully with your arm feeling great. I hope this is helpful. Blessings on your journey....❤
Hi, of course I would first suggest asking a health professional......and it is my opinion from working with people for years that the body needs our attention and love. The body needs to circulate. Bones are living, they also need our attention. Where we focus energy flows. These Tibetans can be done so slowly and carefully. You can begin with just one, or just sitting in a position and visualize doing them. There is no rush nor any arrival. We need to meet our body where it is. Listen, focus, and breath....you will notice changes.....slowly add another....listen, focus, breath. You might resonate with Joe Dispenza’s work. Blessings on your journey.❤️
@@rememberingwholeness6047 Thank you for your reply, much appreciated! I had been doing the 5 Tibetans before I was told I had osteoporosis, don't really want to have to give them up, so I think it's as you say, pay attention to my body & take things slowly.
Is there an optimum time to do the Tibetans? I like to run early morning. Should I do the Tibetans as a form of warm up? Or can I do these say late afternoon instead?
Hi, It was taught to me to do as a first thing morning practice. I do like this best personally. Over the years I have experimented. I find it works wonders as a warm up, it gets out the morning stuck places and helps me get into alignment. And.....afternoon, evening is great also....
You can prop up your forearms on books. Maybe four to six inches. This way your arm is supported and your hands can hang over. Also I have had success when I immerse my hands (above the wrist) in ice water for 20 minutes every day for a week. Blessings.
Hi, in the video I brake that one down to try different movements to move toward the rite. Is there something specific that you are having trouble with? Blessings
Hi, I started with just a few and then slowly added till I reached 21. Then a daily practice of 21 has been hugely beneficial for me. Blessings. Enjoy.
Hi, I started with three and every few days added another. It took me several months to get to 21. I remember getting to 15 and just did that many for 2 weeks. Remember that you want to enjoy the process and not set yourself up to get frustrated and quit. Pain and discomfort are the bodies communication. Some of the rites were simple but some where really challenging. Spinning would make me really dizzy so I stared with only three. My shoulder did not like the 4th rite so i only raised my body a little at a time. The gift was the trying everyday. I did 3 for the first week, 5 the 2nd week, 8 the 3rd week, 10 the 4th, and 5th. 12 the 6th, 15 for the 7th and 8th week. 17 for the 9th week and 19 the 10th and 11th. Got to 21 on the 12th week......that was many years ago. And I still do them. I hope this helps you. 🙏
Hi. I was recommended by my chiropractic physician to do these exercises. I have some health issues going on and he has me doing other exercises and stimulations and wanted me to add these. I appreciate this video. Very clear and easy to follow. I did it for the first time yesterday. I did 4 iterations of each. I got very sick. Threw up, and was terribly nauseous the reminder of the day. Today, I am still "off" as if my head is ready to spin. My question is this. Should I dig back in and just do something like one of each? I was just contemplating whether waiting might not be helpful, that digging back in might be what my system needs. Please let me know your thoughts. I understand they are just based in your experience with others.. Thank you...
Hi, I am so happy for you. I feel proud of you...Yay. Yes, my suggestion from my experience is to just do 1 or 2 until you are not having a reaction. My thoughts are that your body needs to acclimate to these. They are deeply detoxifying. Be gentle. Dont push....but keep going. Give the body time. The intelligence and wisdom of the body will always move towards health when given a chance. I also might add in some simple breathing. Try inhaling for 3 counts, then exhale for 3 counts. Try this 2 or 3 times. Continual breath. This might help with your symptoms. Much Love and Light. Let me know your progress if you care to share.
Hi, these rites were passed to me by an 84 year old yogi. I didn’t read about them until years later. For me it is simply that it feels right. Feels expansive, open and I like the position of my shoulders. Remember as you continue, that the wisdom is within you. Explore, feel, play....make them yours. Enjoy 😊
My understanding was a man visiting Tibet was up in the mountains at a remote monastery and was given these to bring back and share them. A woman in her 80’s told me about them. She was in amazing shape, totally healthy, amazing energy…..We all need to find our own path. This is just one out of an infinite amount. Blessings.
I’m sorry but you have not performed the Rite’s correctly at all, and I’m not talking about your modifications. To be fair, I’ve been doing these for over 30 yrs and I haven’t seen a single correct version being performed on UA-cam or anywhere else for that matter except for Peter Kelder’s book, which is where they came from. Have you even read it? No disrespect but you’re calling these The 5 Tibetan Rites and they’re not. Blessings 🙏🏻
Love your very gentle and kind way of teaching these amazing rites authentically. Your excellent modifications are rarely found on other videos. You look the picture of health yourself which is inspiring as well. Greetings and immense gratitude to you from Down Under 🌸💮🌸
Thank you so much for your kind words. I am grateful. ❤
I'm 57 stuck with it for the 10 weeks . And I'm proud to say .I got to 21 today .
Yay! So great! It is a life changer. Many blessings😀❤️
Do we do 21 sets of each or 21 day challenge? I'm sorry. I think I missed that part.
How do I feel, newly 57 myself
How do u feel lol?

Could you help with modifications for wrist pain please especially with the 5th Tibetan rite? Thanks -good video!😊
Hi Rachael,
Think of your wrist as having it's own alignment.
We never want it to go past 90 degrees when it is feeling good. It is challenging for me to help without seeing but I can suggest to use 2 yoga blocks, thick books will work. Instead of the hand flat, cup the block. Your weight is on the palms but fingers face down. Allow your arms to be a couple of inches in front of your shoulders to make less of a wrist angle.

Pain is communication. Please listen, dont push. Also ligaments and tendons heal with cold....

Awesome Teaching. What could be your opinion about Body Levitation?
Hi, I actually levitated when I was around 8 years old. I think because it was so spontaneous and I didn't know that "we don't do that". I didn't think about it until I was in my 40s when I recalled a past life in Egypt where I taught levitation. I think it is very possible and I know for myself that my focus is on being the Light and Love. Levitation can be a by product but not a focus for me. Blessings on your journey.
PS - What do you recommend we do with the breathe? Inhale as we contract and exhale as we release?
Please suggest breathing techniques for each posture. Should it be done with isometric method. Also , it is not clear where to take the breath such as focusing navel or chest or sacrum etc. thanks
Hi, great question. I suggest to focus on a continual breath. Inhaling and exhaling equally. You might notice the breath quicken when you are making more effort.
On the 1st...continual breath no holding. 3 or 4 counts in, same out.
On the 2nd...breath in while legs come up, exhale legs down. Here is more a chest breath so I can keep the abdominals in toward the spine.
3rd....inhale back, exhale forward.
4th....inhale up into table, exhale down.
5th...inhale up, exhale down dog. Again ....no holding, continual breath. Diaphram breath into chest is always a great focus while in movement. The abdominal muscles need to be activated to support the back. After you have finished , or between each rite...take a few breaths in the belly.
Blessings ❤
Le numéro deux n’est-il pas mauvais voire très mauvais pour les lombaires ?
Hi, could you please guide the breathing as you go through these or could you direct me to a video explaining the breath patterns we should aim at during these exercises. Many thanks. This is such an unintimidating and user-friendly video.
Before you begin try this....breath for 3 counts, hold for 3 counts, exhale for 3 counts. About 10 rounds. This will set you up for the breathing. The most important part is that you are breathing. The timing is to be felt...and it is best to exhale when the most effort is needed. I do them methodically, to feel myself. I hope this answers your question, enjoy.😊
@@rememberingwholeness6047 thank you!
Hi I am recovering from a nerve transplant on my left arm and I can’t really put much weight in my left wrist. How can I modify numbers 4 & 5? Thank you I’m advance!!!
Hi, I might suggest for the 4th rite. Lie on your back with your legs bent. Feet are parallel as with your knees. Place a yoga block....if you don't have one a role of toilet paper works great. Relax your upper body. Arms open to the side. 10 inches from your body. Palms up if you can. What ever your arm needs for most comfort. Feel your feet. Bring your belly to your spine and then lift your hips slowly.....keep the toilet paper from dropping as you raise and lower your hips. Start slow and build to 21.
For number 5, depending on your injury....you might be able to go onto your forearms raising and lowering your hips slowly and carefully. Please do not put any weight on your arms if there is discomfort.
Doing any form of forward bend then lengthening and reaching your arms upward might be good. Hanging from a pole or rope when the doctor says it is okay is amazing. I imagine you will be supported by some form of physical therapy for a while. I also recommend visualizing yourself doing them fully with your arm feeling great. I hope this is helpful. Blessings on your journey....❤
Question: is it better to aim for more repetitions with easier movements or less repetitions with more difficult movements?
Personally I would go for less repetitions. Go slowly, listen to your body. Quality over quantity. Consistency. Blessings.
May I do other weight lifting exercises along with the 5 Tibetan rites, please advice
I use these as a base line. Over the years I have done all kinds of different workouts. I have found that these supported everything. Enjoy!
Thanks
perfect timing :)
No perfect timing.
Love your videos. Are the 5 Tibetans safe if you have osteoporosis?
Hi, of course I would first suggest asking a health professional......and it is my opinion from working with people for years that the body needs our attention and love. The body needs to circulate. Bones are living, they also need our attention. Where we focus energy flows. These Tibetans can be done so slowly and carefully. You can begin with just one, or just sitting in a position and visualize doing them. There is no rush nor any arrival. We need to meet our body where it is. Listen, focus, and breath....you will notice changes.....slowly add another....listen, focus, breath. You might resonate with Joe Dispenza’s work. Blessings on your journey.❤️
@@rememberingwholeness6047 Thank you for your reply, much appreciated! I had been doing the 5 Tibetans before I was told I had osteoporosis, don't really want to have to give them up, so I think it's as you say, pay attention to my body & take things slowly.
Great video
Where is this recorded?
My apologies for taking so long to respond. It is a yoga studio called Yoga Garden in San Anselmo California. Blessings!
Is there an optimum time to do the Tibetans? I like to run early morning. Should I do the Tibetans as a form of warm up? Or can I do these say late afternoon instead?
Hi, It was taught to me to do as a first thing morning practice. I do like this best personally. Over the years I have experimented. I find it works wonders as a warm up, it gets out the morning stuck places and helps me get into alignment. And.....afternoon, evening is great also....
🙏❤🙏
I also do lots of yoga is it the same ? My one wrist has become sore how can i do downward dog?
You can prop up your forearms on books. Maybe four to six inches. This way your arm is supported and your hands can hang over. Also I have had success when I immerse my hands (above the wrist) in ice water for 20 minutes every day for a week. Blessings.
@@rememberingwholeness6047 Thanku for reply will try ..can u pls tell me how to do the 4th rite which is more uncomfortable...
Hi, in the video I brake that one down to try different movements to move toward the rite. Is there something specific that you are having trouble with? Blessings

How many times do each exercise?
Hi, you build up to 21 times for each one. Blessings.
How may reps of each do I do? Thanks!
Hi, I started with just a few and then slowly added till I reached 21. Then a daily practice of 21 has been hugely beneficial for me. Blessings. Enjoy.
@@rememberingwholeness6047 so a few reps of each, lets say 10 each, then increase to 21?
Hi, I started with three and every few days added another. It took me several months to get to 21. I remember getting to 15 and just did that many for 2 weeks. Remember that you want to enjoy the process and not set yourself up to get frustrated and quit. Pain and discomfort are the bodies communication. Some of the rites were simple but some where really challenging. Spinning would make me really dizzy so I stared with only three. My shoulder did not like the 4th rite so i only raised my body a little at a time. The gift was the trying everyday. I did 3 for the first week, 5 the 2nd week, 8 the 3rd week, 10 the 4th, and 5th. 12 the 6th, 15 for the 7th and 8th week. 17 for the 9th week and 19 the 10th and 11th. Got to 21 on the 12th week......that was many years ago. And I still do them. I hope this helps you. 🙏
Hi. I was recommended by my chiropractic physician to do these exercises. I have some health issues going on and he has me doing other exercises and stimulations and wanted me to add these. I appreciate this video. Very clear and easy to follow. I did it for the first time yesterday. I did 4 iterations of each. I got very sick. Threw up, and was terribly nauseous the reminder of the day. Today, I am still "off" as if my head is ready to spin. My question is this. Should I dig back in and just do something like one of each? I was just contemplating whether waiting might not be helpful, that digging back in might be what my system needs. Please let me know your thoughts. I understand they are just based in your experience with others.. Thank you...
Hi, I am so happy for you. I feel proud of you...Yay. Yes, my suggestion from my experience is to just do 1 or 2 until you are not having a reaction. My thoughts are that your body needs to acclimate to these. They are deeply detoxifying. Be gentle. Dont push....but keep going. Give the body time. The intelligence and wisdom of the body will always move towards health when given a chance. I also might add in some simple breathing. Try inhaling for 3 counts, then exhale for 3 counts. Try this 2 or 3 times. Continual breath. This might help with your symptoms. Much Love and Light. Let me know your progress if you care to share.
@@rememberingwholeness6047 Thank you kindly. I will report back. Thank you for the instruction of adding the breathing. I appreciate that...
Hi Terri, just checking in and wanting you to know I put out a new video. I am hoping it will be helpful and inspirational. Sending love, Lenna
The book specifies rite 1 is done with the hands facing down... is there a reason why you do them with hands facing up?
Hi, these rites were passed to me by an 84 year old yogi. I didn’t read about them until years later. For me it is simply that it feels right. Feels expansive, open and I like the position of my shoulders. Remember as you continue, that the wisdom is within you. Explore, feel, play....make them yours. Enjoy 😊
"Tibetan"? i've been on Tibet and Nepal, never seen any of them doing that rites.
My understanding was a man visiting Tibet was up in the mountains at a remote monastery and was given these to bring back and share them. A woman in her 80’s told me about them. She was in amazing shape, totally healthy, amazing energy…..We all need to find our own path. This is just one out of an infinite amount. Blessings.
Note: You are NOT creation.
I’m sorry but you have not performed the Rite’s correctly at all, and I’m not talking about your modifications. To be fair, I’ve been doing these for over 30 yrs and I haven’t seen a single correct version being performed on UA-cam or anywhere else for that matter except for Peter Kelder’s book, which is where they came from. Have you even read it? No disrespect but you’re calling these The 5 Tibetan Rites and they’re not. Blessings 🙏🏻
Thank you 💚
Yay, blessings.❤
Thank you
