The Fountain of Youth in Tibet

Research has proven that body chemistry changes according to the role an actor plays. To be honest, we are all actors, and our entire lives are shaped according to the roles we want to play. To give yourself a new role, change your view of yourself and see how the world's perception of you changes.

Lastly, do not forget that the source of the fountain of youth is within you; you are in charge. The power to activate the mechanism of living or dying within your body lies in your hands. I say this not to blame you but to empower you.

Do not wait until you are close to death to wake up to life. Start living life to the fullest right now and initiate the rejuvenation process.

First Rite

All you need to do is stand up and extend your arms horizontally to the sides. Now, you need to spin around your own axis until you feel a little dizzy. There is one important thing: you should always spin from left to right during this rite.

You can also apply what dancers or figure skaters do to reduce dizziness: before starting to spin, focus your gaze on a specific point. When you begin to spin, try to keep your gaze on this point for as long as possible.

Second Rite

First, lie on your back. Let your hands lie beside your body with palms touching the ground. Keep your fingers together. Then, lift your head off the ground and tuck your chin to your chest. Simultaneously, lift your legs horizontally off the ground without bending your knees. If possible, extend your legs backward over your body toward your head, but do not allow your knees to bend.

Then, slowly lower your head and legs back to the ground, keeping your knees straight. Allow all your muscles to relax, and then repeat the rite. Maintain a consistent breathing rhythm during the repetitions. Inhale deeply as you lift your legs and head, and exhale fully as you lower them. Continue to breathe in the same rhythm while your muscles relax between repetitions. The deeper you breathe, the better.

Third Rite

Kneel with your body upright. Place your hands on your hips. Tuck your chin to your chest. Slowly bend your head backward as far as it will go, arching your spine backward.

Fourth Rite

First, sit on the ground with your legs extended forward. Keep a gap of about 30 cm between your feet. Keep your upper body upright and place your palms on the ground beside your hips. Then, tuck your chin to your chest. Now, tilt your head back as far as it will go. At the same time, lift your body off the ground with your knees bent and your arms straight. Your upper body and thighs should form a straight line parallel to the ground, with your arms and legs perpendicular to the ground from the knees down. Then, tense all your muscles. Finally, relax all your muscles and return to an upright position. Rest before repeating the process.

Fifth Rite

While performing the fifth rite, your body should face downward. Support your body with your hands. Let your palms touch the ground and your toes be in a flexed position. Throughout this rite, there should be about a 60 cm gap between your hands and feet, and you should keep your arms and legs straight.

Start in a position where your arms are perpendicular to the ground, and your body is arched backward toward the ground. Now, tilt your head back as far as possible. Then, bend your body at the hips to form an inverted 'V'. At the same time, tuck your chin to your chest. This is all there is to the rite. Return to the starting position and begin again. After a week of practice, the average person will find this the easiest rite to perform. Once you master this rite, let your body drop from the elevated position almost to the ground. Hold your muscles tensed at both the highest and lowest points for a while. As with the previous rites, continue deep and rhythmic breathing. Inhale deeply as you lift your body. Exhale fully as you lower it.

Keep your arms straight and your body hanging downward. Place your palms on the ground. Softly tilt your head back as far as possible. Without moving your hands or feet, lift your hips to form an inverted V with your body. Tuck your chin to your chest.

I recommend repeating each rite three times. Then, increase the repetitions by two each week until you reach 21 repetitions. That means performing each rite five times in the second week, seven times in the third week, nine times in the fourth week, and so on. After ten weeks, you will be able to perform each rite 21 times.

You can practice them in the morning or evening, whichever is more convenient for you. I practice them both morning and evening. However, I do not recommend stimulating your energy vortexes this much at the beginning. After practicing the rites for about four months, you can repeat each rite 21 times in the morning and three times in the evening. You can continue to increase the evening repetitions by two each week until you reach 21. However, there is no need to perform the rites more than 21 times. But if you truly feel compelled, you can increase the number of repetitions.

There are two additional things that might be helpful. I mentioned the importance of maintaining rhythmic breathing during the repetitions of the rites. Additionally, standing up between rites, with your hands on your body, taking deep and rhythmic breaths, will be very beneficial. Feel the tension leaving your body and relaxing as you exhale. Imagine filling with a sense of comfort and vitality as you inhale. Another recommendation is to take a lukewarm or cool shower after practicing the rites. But never wash with cold water. Rubbing your body first with a wet towel and then with a dry towel will be much more beneficial. However, be careful not to catch a chill during this process. If you do, you will negate all the benefits provided by the rites.
