Combat the Cold With Your Mind
Meditation
Meditation allows the body to withstand the icy cold environments.
‘The cold is psychological. “Who has not ever heard that expression? A secret doctrine of Tibetan yoga called Tumo shows that this statement is totally incorrect.
The Tumo is a practice whose aim is to increase resistance to cold through meditation and exercise. Those who practice this technique are capable of holding naked in a cold environment. The practice is to capture the psychic heat the air and put it in the body. Later, that energy is converted into heat by visualizing in the mind of a very warm light field, which lies inside the body and consists of the vital sensation of cold produced by low temperatures. That heat, represented by the sphere, is what the practitioner must deal Tumo all areas of your body prevent freezing.
But not anyone can do it, because it is necessary to know precise techniques of breathing, relaxation, concentration and exercise.
