University Open Air: Tibetan Tantric Methods for Freedom from Burnout Syndrome
To address burnout we practice with three bodies: physical, energy, and mental. Our body is composed of channels, and when the channels are not open or do not function well, then our physical body suffers. Our body is filled with energies, and when our breath does not function well, then our energy body will suffer. Our body is also filled with essential drops, when our essential drops do not function well, then our mental body will suffer. All three of them are connected to, dependent upon and exert effect upon each other. When they do not function properly, then we have burnout syndrome! Opening the channels will give you boundless strength, energy, and joy!
*Participants should bring a yoga mat or blanket—something to sit and lie down on.
Dr. Chok Tenzin Monlam has dedicated his career to the continuance of Tibetan Buddhist culture and language in modern society. Ordained by His Holiness the Dalai Lama, he studied and practiced as a Tibetan monk for ten years. Having advanced his studies through institutions for two decades, Dr. Chok has obtained multiple degrees in Buddhist and Tibetan studies, including his PhD from the University of Delhi. He has studied and trained for decades in Buddhist studies, Tibetan yoga, healing, and meditation under the direction of many renowned Tibetan teachers of the major and minor Tibetan Buddhist traditions. An author, translator, and language instructor, Dr. Chok served as the Head of the Research and Translation Department at the Library of Tibetan Works and Archives in Dharamsala for thirteen years before relocating to the United States in 2019. Dr. Chok has taught prolifically in India, the United States, and over a dozen other countries, offering diverse and inclusive teaching series on meditation, Tibetan yoga, healing, Buddhist philosophy, and Tibetan language
