What is your Rang-shien (constitution)?

               According to an traditional Tibetan Medical textbook, yGyudbshi, there are 7 different Rang-shiens (constitutions) which means something pre-existed in our bodies. Rang-shiens are made of 3 Dowas - Loong, Tripa, and Baekan. Dowa means gathering of 4/5 elements, when the Dowas are in balance or harmony, they help each other to promote and create our well-being; however, if any of these Dowas become disturbed, they all start to lose their balance and deconstruct our health or well-being.

​                The three dowas resemble three biological broth- ers. When all three brothers are healthy, they stay in harmony; however, when any one of the brothers gets injured or attacked, this will automatically in uence or a ect the other two brothers. Eventually, the disturbances will result in disharmony in the mind and body.

7 different Rang-shiens (constitution) are:
  1. Loong
  2. Tripa
  3. Baekan
  4. Loong + Tripa
  5. Tripa + Baekan
  6. Baekan + Loong
  7. Loong + Tripa + Baekan
