BENDURYA PURE GARDEN
Sowa Rigpa Center in Belgium
Find balance, energy and clarity through traditional Tibetan medicine
A place dedicated to care, transmission, and encounters around traditional Tibetan medicine
Located in Gesves, near Namur, Belgium, Bendurya Pure Garden is a centre for traditional Tibetan medicine (Sowa Rigpa).
The centre brings together several complementary dimensions in one place:
- individual care and support
- a training school: Sorig Khang Belgium
- retreats and resource spaces
- events, meetings and practices of presence
Through these different approaches, Bendurya offers a space where one can slow down, regain balance, and nurture a more conscious relationship with oneself, others, and the living world.
A wonderful garden where health and happiness flourish
Inspired by Yuthok Yönten Gönpo, the father of Tibetan medicine, and guided by the Dr Nida Chenagtsang, we founded Bendurya Pure Garden, the first centre of traditional Tibetan medicine (Sowa Rigpa) in Belgium.
Supported by Sorig Khang International (SKŸ), this place is dedicated to the preservation, teaching and transmission from the wisdom of Sowa Rigpa, in dialogue with the needs of the contemporary world.
Through consultations, care, training, health retreats, meditative practices, yoga and artistic projects, we offer a space where tradition and modernity meet to nourish vitality, cultivate balance, and awaken the spirit.
Here, every step is an invitation to slow down, to listen, and to return to the essentials.
Sowa Rigpa, the ancestral medicine of the Himalayas
Science of healing or nourishment of consciousness, this natural science from the Himalayas is called in Tibetan Sowa Rigpa. It is the "sister" of Ayurveda and the "cousin" of Chinese medicine. With over 2000 years of history, it is one of the three major healthcare systems in Asia.
Much more than a medicine, Sowa Rigpa is a path to well-being, longevity, and inner harmony, where health arises from the unity between body, mind, and environment.
Today, this ancient wisdom continues to inspire a holistic way of life, accessible to all those seeking to cultivate vitality and inner peace.
Taking care of oneself differently
Each support is personalised to help you regain balance, vitality, and inner clarity.
