sKu-mNyé: Moving Being

sKu-mNyé is a system of physical exercises from the Aro gTér lineage, belonging to Dzogchen Long-dé.

Precisely guided movements alternate with periods of meditation. The spectrum of exercises ranges from subtle, simple movements to demanding sequences that require and cultivate strength, endurance, and fitness. Due to the diversity within the 111 exercises, this practice is suitable for people with very different physical abilities—the range of personal practice extends from gentle mobilization to intensive training for the musculoskeletal and cardiovascular systems.

The effects of regular sKu-mNyé practice are manifold: On the one hand, the exercises offer a much-needed counterbalance to sedentary professional activities or long periods of seated meditation in retreats. On the other hand, practitioners report unexpected flexibility, vitality, clarity, and joy of life. However, the deepest and most fundamental effect of this practice is that it allows us a non-conceptual, direct experience of our psychophysical energy and thus insights into our natural state.

In these sessions, we will practice sKu-mNyé exercises together online. Even those trying sKu-mNyé for the first time are warmly welcome: All participants will receive the necessary explanations and demonstrations during the session so they can practice the exercises independently afterward.
