Initial Consultation with Menpa (Tibetan Doctor) Matthew Schmookler

Consultation may be arranged online or in-person in Berkeley, California, U.S.A.

In the essence of Traditional Tibetan Medicine and Yantra Yoga we find a simple truth: our body and mind are interdependent and the bridge between them is our energy. This knowledge can help us to rediscover our natural mental health. We can use our physical body to coordinate our energy by balancing our food and behavior, using natural supplements, working with points on our body with Tibetan Kunye Massage Therapies and governing our breathe with awareness through Yantra Yoga. When we coordinate our energy our mind finds its natural relaxation.

In today’s society there are more and more stresses leading to suffering related to uncoordinated energy such as insomnia, anxiety and depression. When our body is healthy, our energy is coordinated and our mind is naturally relaxed we can authentically enjoy this precious life we have. Tibetan Medicine and Yantra Yoga offer the time-tested knowledge to achieve this.
