General Discussion: The 3-Body Workout with Huy Lam

In Reference to:
The 3-Body Workout

 

The 3-Body Workout (10 minute version) has been uploaded to Integral Life, and is available to watch free of charge.  Click the link above, or the image to the right.

The 3-Body Workout (sometimes called "Integral Kata") covers all the bases: physical, subtle, and causal.  This routine can be scaled up or down, expanding or shortening any of its segments.  The standard version (represented here) takes about 10 minutes, and can be used as an effective daily practice.  We also teach an expanded version that takes about an hour.  If you're pressed for time, and feel you just need to get in touch with your three bodies, the 10-Minute Module is an excellent way to go.

The 3-Body Workout begins with Ever-Present Suchness, or the is-ness of all things.  The practice is grounded, first, by simply noticing That which never changes, in which all things arise (the causal), and invoking the free relationship of consciousness to all conditions.  The workout then proceeds to exercise all three of your bodies—physical, subtle, and causal—in an integrated way.  It ends witha  meditation that prepares you to re-enter the world with presence and clarity.

For the full hour-length module, please check out the Integral Life Practice Kit.

2 Minute 3 body

 My DVD also had a two minute version of the workout.  Try telling yourself you don't have two minutes to spare for a better life.

Question about gross-body exercises

I've enjoyed watching the 3-body workout video in the ILP kit, but have a question about the middle of the workout, where one engages in squats, push-ups, sit-ups etc. in the gross body portion.  My understanding of strengthening exercises is that one should do them every other day to allow muscle to rebuild.  In these F.I.T. exercises, where we just do 3 to 5 repetitions, should one still skip a day between doing say, the squats and push-ups?  I know sit-ups can be done every day.  If anyone has any information about this part of the 3-body workout, I would appreciate it!
