Lama Yeshe didn't see a car until he was 15 years old. In his quiet village, he and other children ran in fields with yaks and mastiffs. The rhythm of life was anchored by the pastoral cycles. Food was carefully apportioned and eaten together, everyone was family. The arrival of Chinese army cars one day in 1959 changed everything. In the wake of the deadly Tibetan Uprising, he escaped to India through the Himalayas to start over as a refugee.

Story
Inside each of us are seven major energy centers that hold the key to our happiness, sense of ease, and well-being. Research on chakras dates back thousands of years across numerous spiritual traditions. Acupuncture, yoga, reiki, crystals, essential oils, and meditation are among the many methods used to awaken and balance chakras.
Summary
The true nature of our minds is enlightened and peaceful, as the depth of the ocean is calm and clear. But when we mentally grasp and emotionally cling to our wants and worries with all our energy, we lose our own enlightened freedom and healing power, only to gain stress and exhaustion, suffering and overexcitement, like the turbulent waves rolling on the surface of the ocean. Our minds possess the power to heal pain and stress, and to blossom into peace and joy, by loosening the clinging attitudes that Buddhists call "grasping at self." If we apply the mind's healing power, we can heal not only our mental and emotional afflictions, but physical problems also. This book is an invitation to awaken the healing power of mind through inspiring images and sounds, mindful movements, positive perceptions, soothing feelings, trusting confidence, and the realization of openness. The healing principle on which these exercises are based is the universal nature and omnipresent power envisioned in Mahayana Buddhism. Yet for healing, we don't have to be believers in any particular faith. We can heal body and mind simply by being what we truly are, and by allowing our own natural healing qualities to manifest: a peaceful and open mind, a loving and positive attitude, and warm, joyful energy in a state of balance and harmony.

it was okay.
as a registered nurse I feel like maybe don't take medical advice from this book, otherwise it's great for building mental strength and resilience.
in a sentence: infuse everything with loving healing light, feed it to yourself and give it to the world, do this as much as you can - that's the main take home message I think x

healing, surely the best entry to the divine
Especially when the other solutions fail, you might just have to knuckle down and heal yourself. But how? Listen to this and learn how. Yes, some parts of the readings sound like Tibetan thinking and linguistic mannerisms forced into English, but it's all quite understandable. The latter part of the book is a surprisingly complete how-to. An energy healing solution for you, even if your other sources of help aren't helping, but also if they are helping -- you can help them along. It's also good for living as a more complete and mature human being. Really.

Superb Writer, Super Bad Narrator
The narrator probably didn’t mean it this way, but his use of insipid accents for Buddhist masters quoted by Rinpoche makes this un-listenable. The same narrator does Rinpoche’s other book and it has the same flaw - a big mistake, this is one of the best practice guides for westerners published.
