Mantra meditation or Japa Yoga is a practice where you repeat a special word or phrase, known as a “mantra” or a divine name, in a focused and intentional way. This method is deeply rooted in ancient spiritual traditions like Yoga, Buddhism, and Sufism. They induces a meditative state through the repetition of sacred sounds spoken aloud, connecting you with your higher self and a higher power.

You can do mantra meditation in different ways—sitting quietly in a specific meditation pose, incorporating it into your daily activities, or as part of a group session. When you repeat the mantra, you can say it softly, loudly enough for yourself to hear, or even silently in your mind.

What Does Japa Mean?

The term “japa” comes from the Sanskrit language. It originates from the root word “jap-,” which means to speak in a low voice, repeat internally, or mutter.  It is believed that practicing Japa yoga, chanting mantras with divine power, removes the impurities of the mind, destroys sins and ultimately results in samadhi, or communion with God, when practiced regularly.

So, in simple terms, mantra meditation is about repeating a meaningful word or phrase with focus and intention with the idea that using this repetition will bring about positive transformations in your life.

Prayer Beads

Using prayer beads is a universal practice found in diverse cultures and religions worldwide, transcending denominational boundaries. My own personal practice incorporates both Christian rosary beads and prayer or mala beads from India made from the Rudraksha seed. Rudraksha are known for their rough texture that grounds me in the present moment during meditation and mantra chanting.

The group mantra classes are intentionally inclusive and non-denominational, fostering a spiritual space that welcomes individuals from various backgrounds to explore and enrich their unique journeys. Classes begin with group discussion and a guided relaxation followed by the chanting ancient mantras rooted in ancient spiritual traditions.

I facilitate mantra meditation 1:1 or at my live Zoom classes each week on Tuesdays and Thursdays at 10-11am EST, 3-4pm BST. Click HERE to check your time zone.

Individual sessions provide a dedicated time for you to be supported and heard, helping you find the courage within to navigate personal or work-related challenges. I have a special ability to be fully present for you, allowing guidance to come through me for you. This support will help you to release stress and worry so that you can clearly see a next step.

Even if you come with one thing on your mind, we may uncover other areas of your life that need attention. In your first session, you can experience a stronger sense of your own value, see a clearer path ahead, and gain renewed confidence in the journey life is taking you on.
