FREDRIK PROST'S JOURNEY TO TUVA: POSTURE, SHAMANISM, AND TRADITIONAL LIFE FAR AWAY AND CLOSE TO HOME

By: Fredrik Prost

Esther's note: Fredrik Prost, the Saami craftsman and posture student I wrote about in these past blogs: Fredrik's Journey to a Pain-Free Back, Sleeping on Birch Branches in Samiland, Beauty, Art, and Posture, and Better Posture, Better Sleep, recently journeyed to Tuva. Here is an account he wrote for us about Tuvan posture, culture, and shamanism, including photos he took. It is a rare treat to hear about indigenous people from an indigenous person - one who speaks English well and knows our posture language too!


Tuva is an autonomous republic of Russia that lies northwest of Mongolia in the south of Siberia.

Fredrik: This summer I went there to explore the Tuvan traditions, in particular their spirituality.
