DAY 159 - THE FOUNTAIN OF YOUTH REVEALED

Day 159

No,  I'm not about to sell you a magical cream that promises to give you back your youth... but rather a series of exercises!!!!

In the 1930’s,  an American man by the name of Peter Kelder met a retired British colonel who had travelled through Tibet and visited a remote and isolated monastery located in the Himalayas. The British colonel told him that the monks living there had been practising five exercises, which actually were created by condensing 21 yoga moves into 5, for thousands of years to help them live long and healthy lives. These men lived up to 120 years old.

Peter Kelder went on to write a book called The Eye Revelation: The Ancient Secret of the Fountain of Youth," where he described those exercises called the "Five Tibetan Rites".

Healing practitioners have maintained that the body has seven principal energy centres called the chakras, which correspond to the seven endocrine glands. These five exercises are said to activate and stimulate the seven key chakras and so, all the glands of the endocrine system.

Because the endocrine system is responsible for the body's overall functioning and ageing process, the five rites will affect the functioning of all your organs and systems, including the physical and energetic systems, and the ageing process.

As a result, the practising of these rites has the following benefits:
  • improve sleep
  • increase energy level
  • provide relief from medical problems including problems with the spine
  • provide relief from problems with joints
  • alleviate pain
  • improve memory
  • improve physical strength
  • improve endurance and vigour
  • help lose weight
  • improve emotional and mental health
  • make you look younger

The five ancient Tibetan rites help normalize hormonal imbalances present in the body and therefore, are said to hold the key to lasting youth, health, vitality and happiness.

I will try this fountain of youth for the next month and I’ll write another post about it to let you know if I feel any significant change.

If you would like try these exercises as well, here’s a link to a you tube video: Tibetan Rites . 

Be healthy, Stay young, Be happy!
