Introduction to Mantra Workshop
This 2 hour workshop explores the meaning of Mantra and you will discover the positive vibrational effects of chanting Sanskrit mantras.
Your teacher Nitya will take you through some Universal Mantras, plus you will learn some Beeja mantras and practice a kirtan (devotional call and response singing).
It will be a fun exploration of Nada Yoga (Yoga of sound) and make you feel uplifted and joyful. There are plenty of research proving the long lasting health benefits of chanting.
Mantra is used for synchronizing the mind and for internalizing the awareness in order to achieve pratyahara (the first stage of meditation). A deep sense of peace and relaxation plus a feeling of vibrancy can be achieved through chanting Mantras.
