Course outline

Contemplations of the Five Elements form an important component of Tara Rokpa Therapy, developed by Akong Rinpoche - founder of Samye Ling Monastery - according to his knowledge of traditional Tibetan medicine and his own spiritual tradition. Tara Rokpa Therapy offers ways to help us face the difficulties we experience in everyday life. It is a unique system which can transform the way we deal with suffering; either by overcoming difficulties or by being able to accept and face them.

There is great value in exploring and coming to understand the Elements in our complete environment; especially their interconnection with ourselves at a physical, emotional and mental level. Through exploration we will see how the Five Elements are constantly ‘at play’, continually moving and changing to find the natural balance that is essential for our health and wellbeing.

The course will incorporate the use of art materials for simple free painting and drawing to aid relaxation. There will be specific guided contemplations on the elements, using visualisations for a deeper inner enquiry and self healing relaxation. Please bring a few simple art materials, such as paper, water colours/ paints or crayons. Comfortable warm clothing is good to bring and something to lie down on, such as a yoga mat/ roll.

We will make good use of the beautiful Holy Isle landscape to explore the Elements!
