The “fountain of youth” might be found in the ancient Tibetan Five Rites.
The Five Tibetan Rites is a system of exercises reported to be more than 2,500 years old which were first publicized by Peter Kelder in a 1939 publication titled The Eye of Revelation. It’s a great short read and you may find a copy under “FILES” in our Facebook Group.
For my morning workout I love enhancing flexibility with the Five Tibetan Rites because this practice effectively strengthens and stretches all the main muscles in your body.
When practiced daily, the five rites are said to enhance mental clarity and memory, balance hormones, improve health and support emotional well-being, rejuvenation and longevity.
The number 21 is considered a sacred number to Tibetans. The rites (lamas) also stimulate the chakras (the seven energy centers of the body) and increase a flow of energy from the core outward.
I know elderly women (over 80) who keep themselves limber and strong by performing these rites daily. I recommend you learn this simple practice, which you can do in just ten minutes.
I recommend doing the rites in the morning rather than the evening, because they do stoke your energy. Begin by practicing five to seven repetitions of each rite, and build up to 21 reps.
Let me know your progress if you decide to do these rites!

Much Love, Deedee
