Kum Nye Retreats
Kum Nye is a body-oriented movement and contemplative practice, developed by Tarthang Tulku, a contemporary Vajrayana teacher at the Nyingma Institute in Berkeley. This practice helps develop multi-level awareness skills that are rooted in embodied experience within a meditative context. It also enables us to experience at subtle and deep levels, the healing potential within the human energy system.
The practice of Kum Nye helps develop stamina and the capacity to enquire into resistance as it is held in a person’s psychophysical structure.
‘In mastering Kum Nye, we learn how to benefit from all manner of experience, we gain confidence that is grounded in self-knowledge and establish a foundation for joy that can sustain us throughout our lives. We learn what it means to be complete in ourselves. We discover what it means to be.’ (Tarthang Tulku, 2006)
