SUMMARY:COURSE—Tibetan Dream Yoga
DESCRIPTION:COURSE\nTibetan Dream Yoga\nAncient Teachings from the Dzogchen Tradition\n4-Week Online Workshop June 14- July 17\, 2026 \nwith Tenzin Wangyal Rinpoche \n“The practice of dream yoga is about understanding more about appearances and what they truly are. And ultimately\, it is about understanding who we are\, the true sense of self.”\n– Tenzin Wangyal Rinpoche \nThrough practice\, we can cultivate greater awareness during every moment of life. If we do\, freedom and flexibility continually increase and we are less governed by habitual preoccupations and distractions. Eventually we develop a continuity of awareness that allows us to maintain full awareness during dream as well as in waking life. When we fully develop this capacity\, we will find that we are living both waking and dreaming life with greater ease\, comfort\, clarity\, and appreciation. \nRinpoche makes himself available throughout the four weeks of the workshop to answer questions about the teachings and your experiences with the practices through our private workshop forums and messaging system. \n\n				Learn More & Register

SUMMARY:COURSE—Meditation\, Breath and Movement
DESCRIPTION:Meditation\, Breath and Movement\nwith Alejandro Chaoul-Reich \nThis is a 4 week course \nTsa lung is a series of ancient yogic practices that brings balance and harmony to our physical body\, energy and mind. The term tsa lung can be translated as the energy-winds (Tibetan: lung\, Skt. prana\, Chinese\, qi) in the Channels\, for these practices are designed to open the subtle channels\, guiding the healthy flow of the energy-winds so that we can enjoy good health and reconnect with more calmness to a quiet\, peaceful mind. These exercises are easy to perform and are suitable for everyone. \nThere are three levels of tsa lung practice: external\, internal and secret. External tsa lung works primarily on the physical level\, using simple movements and breath exercises to balance the energies within our body. Internal tsa lung works more at the level of breath and subtle energy\, bringing our attention to opening the five chakras and the central channel. Secret tsa lung uses subtle visualizations within the chakras and central channel to bring harmony to the mind\, so that we can rest in our inner refuge\, nature of mind. All of the tsa lung exercises integrate and balance the five elements within: earth\, water\, fire\, wind and space. \nThese practices are drawn from the Bön Mother Tantra (Tibetan: Ma Gyud) the highest tantra in our tradition. They are a beautiful complement to any meditation practice\, and particularly to dzogchen. They are frequently performed at the beginning of a session so that meditation is deeper and more stable. External tsa lung is commonly performed in all Ligmincha centers and groups. \n			\n				Learn More & Register
