Welcome Inquisitive One..
How often do you sit still and put down all distractions? Have you ever sat so still and silently that a spark of inspiration illuminates you? When were you last quiet enough to hear your inner wisdom? I'd love to invite you to explore these questions with me for a 4-week online journey into meditation & mantra. Your mind is an entire universe of intricacy, only some of which we fully grasp in our daily lives. We have countless thoughts each day; this is our brains' natural state.. flux. And I've always considered an 'empty mind' to be a fruitless goal in meditation because of this simple fact. Did you know that when you have a thought, your vocal cords vibrate ever so slightly? Making our thoughts and words far more connected than we may have previously realised. Rishis are renunciate spiritual seekers who first 'heard' the mantras from the gods and goddesses while in meditation - making them sacred sounds uttered in the presence of the divine. These sounds began as a mummer, then a vibration, into a note that was shaped into words and finally a mantra. To whatever you deem divine, bow to it, sit with it, sing to it. |

What to Expect..
In this course, I invite you to delve into the world of meditation. Each week we'll explore a form of meditation, understanding it intellectually, then exploring personally. We'll end our practice by learning an ancient sanskrit mantra, unpacking the meaning and allowing the first words we speak after meditation to carry forward ancient wisdom.
