Tibetan Book of Healing »

For the first time the principles and practical applications of Tibetan medical and Buddhist psychological guidelines have been used for centuries by spiritual masters and practitioners to apprach life in a healthy and balanced manner. The Tibetan approach to life has points in common with Ayurveda from India and Chinese medicine. Its goal of wellness is defined by the following:

• Freedom from serious psychological and physical disease.
• Adherence to a health plan based on your personality, your body type and needs, and your capacity to fulfill and meet those needs.
• An understanding of the changing and impermanent nature of life and, within that understanding, the awareness of a purpose in life.
• Acceptance of the stress and change found in relationships, the environment, the seasons and the aging process.
• A sense of moral responsibility and a willingness to learn and grow.
• A feeling of positive accomplishment, contentment and appreciation for being human.
