SUMMARY:Mantra Meditation w/ Jot Anant
DESCRIPTION:  \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \nMantra\, मन्त्र \,  translates from the Sanskrit root ‘man/manas’ (the thinking mind) and ‘tra/trava’ (to liberate\, to transcend).  \n\n\n\n\n \nMantra literally means liberation of the mind. \n\n\n\n\n \nIt is said that the sacred mantric sounds fell from the Divine source\, were heard by the Rishis who then formulated them into the cohesive body of mantras that are still widely used today\, forming an unbroken chain of sound energy. Each mantra is precisely\, sacredly\, and exquisitely formed to create powerful vibrations that connect us back to our true\, Divine nature.  \n\n\n\n\n \nChanting runs through every form of yoga. It helps to regulate our breathing\, quiet the mind\, open the heart\, connect us to universal energy\, and bring about deep healing. Mantras are one of the most powerful tools we have for calming the mind and working with thought patterns as it helps us to create new neural pathways.  \n\n\n\n\n \nOther benefits of chanting mantra include: \n\n\n\n\n \n~Soothes anxiety \n\n\n\n\n \n~Releases stress \n\n\n\n\n \n~Brings deep joy and contentment \n\n\n\n\n \n~Opens the throat chakra \n\n\n\n\n \n~Uplifts our mood \n\n\n\n\n \n~Stimulates the vagus nerve \n\n\n\n\n \n~Calms the nervous system \n\n\n\n\n \n~Boosts the immune system \n\n\n\n\n \n~Stimulates secretions of the pituitary gland \n\n\n\n\n \nIn this workshop we will explore the nuances of sound in yoga\, learn different ways to incorporate mantra\, and use mantra as a form of meditation\, to soothe the mind and connect us back to our true Selves. By understanding the use of mantras participants will gain a better perspective of the application of sacred sound in their own personal Yoga sadhana (practice).  \n\n\n\n\n \n“Through mantra\, we can awaken the Divine light within us and expand beyond the limitations of space\, direction and manifestation. Through mantra\, one can learn to ride the waves of cosmic light and sound\, going back to the Divine Word at the heart of the world. This is the cosmic form of Mantra Yoga known only to Yogis who have gone beyond the body and mind.” – David Frawley \n\n\n\n\n \nCost: $30\, Financial Assistance Available \n\n\n\n\n \n\n\n\n\nClick Here to Register Now\n\n\n\n\n \n\n\n\n \nPLEASE NOTE: We encourage pre-registration for all programming.
