The Five Tibetan Rites are a short series of yoga-type exercises that primary appeared in a book by Peter Kelder in the 1930s. Kelder told how he had gotten to know a retired British army officer called Colonel Bradford who had recounted his travels in far off lands including a tale he had heard of a series of exercises or Rites practiced in a remote temple in Tibet that were believed to have rejuvenating properties, keeping the monks eternally young.

Colonel Bradford soon came back to Asia to seek out the restoring Rites for himself. When Kelder met him again a few years later, Bradford was transformed. Much of his balding hair had grown back, it was darker with less gray, and his arthritic stoop was gone. He seemed like a middle aged man rather of the old man that he had been. He showed Kelder how to carry out the Rites and Kelder soon felt the gain for himself.

We now recognise that the exercises have more in ordinary with Indian yoga traditions than Tibetan, but wherever they came from, they surely have a terrifi effect. If you exercise them in the right way you must begin to feel physical, aroused and spiritual gains within a few weeks or even days.

Almost any individual may do the Five Tibetan Rites (but see the Important Note underneath if you have any health problems). They are quick and simple, requiring no special equipment.

It is best to begin with just one of each Rite a day, increasing to 3, then 5, etc whenever you feel ready, up to a greatest or most complete or best possible of 21. Do not increase beyond 21 repetitions. There is no added gain in doing more and it may have a negative effect.

If you are very unfit or overweight, get started by doing exercises 1 through 3 only. Add in 4 and 5 (together) when you feel ready, beginning with just one repetition of these even if you are doing more of the others.

It is very essential to do the exercises in the rectify order, and undertake to do them each day. Do not miss more than one day a week. If you do not have much time one day, you may cut back to 7, 3 or even one repetition of each. It is better to do just one than none.

Most humans get greatest or most complete or best possible gain by doing the exercises in the morning before breakfast but choose a time that is commodious for you. Always wait at least 2 hours after eating. You may want to do galore easy stretching to warm up the body before you start.

To get the best results, it is critical to do the Rites in full cognizance of all of the movements. Breathe in as you go into an exercise and breathe out as you come out of it.

Try to keep a relaxed attitude of mind, and do not compare yourself with other humans or think regarding how you are doing equated with yesterday or last week. All that matters is what your own body is doing, right now.

Doing the Rites tardily will help you to stay concentered on your body. Do not over stretch or push your body to limits in any way – you must be comfortable all through your session.

Important Note:

If you have heart problems, multiple sclerosis, Parkinson’s disease, hyperthyroid, high blood pressure, vertigo or dizziness, or any other chronic or severe health issue, you must not do the Five Tibetan Rites without firstborn consulting your doctor.
