Release of the Body
Starting when you choose this tradition at level 3 you gain a pool of healing power containing hit points equal to your monk level x 10. The pool replenishes upon a long rest.
As an action, you can spend 1 ki point to touch a creature and draw power from the pool to restore a number of hit points to that creature, up to the amount of hit points you have remaining in your pool. Alternatively, when you spend a ki point to use flurry of blows you may replace 1 unarmed strike with a healing touch without expending a ki point.
Release of the Mind
At 6th level, you have taken your first steps towards separating from Duhkha. When making a saving throw against being Charmed, Frightened, Incapacited or Possessed, you now roll with advantage.
Additionally, as an action you may spend 1 ki point and 15 hit points from your pool of healing power to cast Lesser Restoration on a creature you touch with no components. Alternatively, when you expend a ki point to use flurry of blows you may replace 1 unarmed strike with Lesser Restoration without expending a ki point (hit point cost still applies).
Cooperative Ascension
At 11th level, you have gained the ability to manipulate ki in others to help them further on the path to enlightenment. As an action you may expend 2 ki points to cast the Calm Emotions or Suggestion spell with no component.
Additionally, as an action you may spend 2 ki points and 25 hit points from your pool of healing power to cast Greater Restoration on a creature you touch with no components. Alternatively, when you expend a ki point to use flurry of blows you may replace 1 unarmed strike with Greater Restoration at the cost of 1 additional ki point (hit point cost still applies)
