Hi, I have read a few posts about the Five Tibetan Rites and was wondering if these are in the same category as yoga ie. flexibility (although it didn't look too flexy on you tube - anyone seen that guy in the blue speedos on the beach doing the rites at record speed?  ) And, if anyone could tell me if they need to be done daily to experience benefits? Or can they be alternated with yoga. Would also love to hear any experiences or health benefits discovered from others who love the five tibetan rites. Cheers, Steve. |

hey guys have been practicing t5t's for a year every day and the benefits are amazing...i feel it opens all my chakras every day...has strengthened my body further...
i can do the full five in under five mins...thats without meaning to do them fast...i just do...sometimes i make myself do them slower...but i like the empowered and energised feeling of doing them quite swiftly...oftne i will do them twice a day....have done them 4 times in a row before as a form of a twenty min workout.....but its not meant to be seen as a workout in my opinion...they are much more than that
i have done the sixth rite too...but dont feel the desire to do that really....and i dont particularly enjoy it...makes me feel very light headed....

trick is if you feeling squeamish dont do the 21 reps straight off,start with as little as 6 or 10 and work up...you will laugh when i did my first lot i did 25 reps each...just to prove i could,well the next day could hardly move,and certainly not cos i was unfit.....
it stimulates your body in a way not many other movements of the body can!
