This 57 year old  has just got to 21 rounds so proud .

I love the 5 tibetan rites! Doing them for 13 years already. Body is half my age :).

Beautiful place! Where is it? Based on the book of Peter Kelder, The "5 Tibetans rites" needs to be started with 3 reps of each rite but that is not what is demonstrated here. And the first rite can be done until feel a bit dizzy but not more than 21 reps. If rite number 2 is too difficult, the legs do not need to be straight! If one of the rite is not possible, just do the others until when later on possible to do the rite that is missing. The breathing is important too. Breathing in while extending the body, breathing out when coming back to initial position. 3 deep breaths or more in between each rite and while breathing in, imagining filling up with positive refreshing energy, when breathing out getting rid of tension and relaxing. Enjoy - with a smile - Luis

I have been doing these Rites since 1990 every morning. Like you I have added what I call the 5 Tibetan Plus, natural moves for me that fit with the 5. My routine takes about 30minutes and I am stronger today then I was 30 years ago. I am in my late 60's :-)

I'm 76 and have incorporated this routine into my daily yoga practice. I do these every morning. I'm up to 19. I started out with 3 and increased 1 each week. I believe that proper breathing, strength, and flexibility are the keys to a healthy body (as well as what you put into your body).  As far as the spinning, I am surprised that as you progress, you get less and less dizzy. It has to be good for balance.

5 Tibetans for me are totally precious gem. I do it every day ( 3 rounds 7reps each exercise) as a morning routine, about 4 years. In 4 years I got a very nice toned body with amazing mobility and flexibility. Great stuff. I recommend them for everyone

👃 I'm here after reading Breathe by James Nestor, anyone else? 🙋‍♀️

I am 77 and do the full 21. Great demonstration.

My husband and I swear by these exercises!! I got rid of painful sciatica suffered 3 days...husband said...do my exercises...Bam...even just 1 set of doing half assed...when I got up from floor...TOTALLY GONE! Then year later had out of this world head ache (blessed at 72 to never get headaches) but this was a doozy! Again, husband said...do my exercises...did 1 set..again half assed...got up praying all the way back to couch...I sat on couch waiting...waiting...GONE...NATTA!! Just hour ago...husband that had been suffering for 4 days with shoulder pain and no chiros were available on Thursdays! So after using all the oils and zapper and different things to help...to no avail...guess what I said...go do your exercises! He did and hallelujah!!!! He walked back into kitchen standing straight up and no sharp pain...just a tiny something that was nothing compared to last 4 days! These guys do a great,  quick easy job of explaining how simple it is. EVERYONE should do these exercises EVERYDAY! We sure are now...kind of forgot about them...but never again!!!

I’ve been doing these every day for five years. I actually put these exercises in the book I wrote for folks with lung disease. These exercise are part of my daily routine that have helped me to restore lung function and overall improvement in flexibility and strength. I am 68 years old diagnosed with a severe life-threatening lung disease, five years ago and now stronger than an ox

First of all thanks for the demostration. This is one of the good videos I've seen and the view is wonderful.
I have been doing these exercises since 2000 or so on and off. In the last three months I began to do at least 5 times a week.
The whole 21 set takes about 5-6 minutes and very easy to do once you began doing each day.
And it definetly gives energy and makes you feel real good.
One trick may be doing it like in the evening when you feel most low (if you are to stay awake till 12-1 especially)
Believe me doing these plus a nice 4-5km walk each day is all you need.

Excellent! ....I learned these moves from his Holiness himself!

Me 75 years old. 15 years on and off. Today is my day

The idea is not really to exercise, but to move the spine.  It is the movement of the spine combined with the movement of the body that is displacing  stagnant energy.  Master Chunyi Lin does  a fine job of explaining how the Chi moves through the body with some other simpler exercises.

I believe it is really important to highlight the breathing more, it really makes a difference in this exercise.

Best execution of the 5 rites I've found so far. Used to practice 'religiously' up until about seven years ago. Fell out of the habit and into the inverse of wellness. Only up to 12 reps but feeling the benefits already - inside and out. 😊

tried these about forty years ago and wasn't convinced—harder now, of course, but somehow they make sense; thank you for nice video and clear instructions!

Great video except there's very little emphasis on breath,  no mention of when to inhale and exhale in the last 2 rites...

my father has been doing these every morning since i can remember, now i am to follow in his footsteps. thank you for the tutorial :)

Hi My husband is doing for past 10 yrs ..actually his eyesight has improved..
