As Tenzin Wangyal Rinpoche writes about it in his beautiful poem: \nGenerating strength in all the limbs of the body\, \n Accomplishing effortless and spontaneous virtuous activity\, \n Causing the attainment of the ultimate essence body\, \n From my heart\, I praise the pervasive wind-element wind. \n  \nIn this retreat\, we will explore the pervasive breath by using the movements of Trul khor to support the pervasive breath practice of Tsa lung.  May we connect body and breath\, releasing more spontaneous activity to enrich everyday life.\n\n \nFounding Director – Jung Center’s Mind Body Spirit Institute\nAdjunct Faculty – Integrative Medicine Program Department of Palliative\, Rehabilitation & Integrative Medicine MD Anderson Cancer Center\nAdjunct Faculty – McGovern Center for Humanities and Ethics McGovern Medical School\, UT Health\nInstructor – Rice University Glasscock School of Continuing Studies\, aster of Liberal Studies program\nInstructor – University of Maryland\, Baltimore\, Masters in Integrative Medicine \nDr. Chaoul is the Huffington Foundation Endowed Director of the Mind Body Spirit Institute at the Jung Center of Houston\, bringing a new approach for helping healthcare professionals flourish by reducing stress and burnout\, and improving health\, resilience and nourish the human spirit. \nHe holds a PhD in Tibetan religions from Rice University\, and has studied in the Tibetan tradition since 1989\, and for almost 30 years with Yongdzin Tenzin Namdak and Tenzin Wangyal Rinpoche\, completing the 7-year training at Ligmincha Institute in 2000\, and also training in Triten Norbutse monastery in Nepal and Menri monastery in India. \nAlejandro is a Senior Teacher of The 3 Doors\, an international organization founded by Tenzin Wangyal Rinpoche with the goal of transforming lives through meditation\, and since 1995\, he has been teaching meditation classes and Tibetan Yoga (Tsa Lung & Trul Khor) workshops nationally and internationally under the auspices of Ligmincha International. \nIn 1999 he began teaching these techniques at the Integrative Medicine Program of the M.D. Anderson Cancer Center in Houston\, TX\, where he holds an adjunct faculty position and for the last twenty years has conducted research on the effect of these practices in people with cancer and their caregivers.
