Over millennia, many Eastern traditions have developed practices that use the powerful healing energy of breath to treat physical, emotional, and mental problems. In Chinese, this energy is calledchi; in Indian Sanskrit it is calledprana; and in Tibetan it is calledlung.

Lungis life-giving energy that moves through our bodies. A lack or imbalance oflungcan create illnesses of body and mind or cause emotional struggles such as confusion, anger, and sadness. In this book, Geshe YongDong Losar, a scholar and monk in the ancient Bn tradition of Tibet, guides us through time-tested practices to help balance ourlung. His deep knowledgegarnered through years of study and practicerenders the practices simple and achievable, creating a clear path for us toward greater calmness, strength, and clarity.

Over and over I have personally witnessed, both in myself and in my students, the breaths clear potential to heal and deeply transform lives. I truly believe that in the future such practices will play an important role as a medicine for preventing and treating physical, emotional, and mental maladies. I am glad that Geshe YongDong is making these practices widely available, and Im sure that by doing so, he is bringing benefit to countless lives.
