Harnessing Inner Strength through Sound and Mantras
with Nitya Mohan
Join this online workshop series led by renowned yoga teacher, Nitya Mohan, to explore the profound impact of sound and mantras on cultivating inner strength and emotional resilience. Participants will receive Zoom links for live attendance or access recordings available for 7 days after each session.
Introduction
In a world filled with constant challenges, developing an unwavering sense of steadiness, compassion, and courage is crucial. While external obstacles may be beyond our control, the way we perceive and respond to them lies within us. This workshop delves into ancient wisdom from Yoga (Yogasutras, Hathayogapradipika), Mantras (Upanishads, Naradiya Siksha), and Music (Sangita Ratnakaram, Brhaddesi) to uncover the transformative power of sound.
What You Will Learn
- Mind Work: Cognitive techniques using mantras for emotional balance.
- Breath Work: Physiological aspects of sound to rebalance inner functions.
- Body Work: Physical methods anchoring strength and stability through sound.
Through a blend of asana, pranayama, mudras, nyasas, mantras, music, and bhavanas, participants will gain practical tools for achieving clarity and resilience. This program welcomes practitioners from all backgrounds without requiring prior experience with mantra or music.
Program Highlights
The workshop covers three integrated pathways:
1. Physical & Behavioral: Focus on grounding the body to enhance inner stability through vinyasa sequences combined with mantras, purification practices like Aghamarshana Suktam for cleansing both mind and body, and nyasas placing awareness in specific parts of the body.
2. Physiological & Somatic: Delve into pranayama techniques linked to sound, such as lengthening breath through a mantra or deepening dharana with mantras easing effort during breathing exercises. Explore connections between agni (fire) and sound vibrations for deeper physiological impacts.
3. Psychological & Cognitive: Engage in mindfulness practices like Citta Nadi Bhavana connecting the mind to rivers, Aditya Hrdayam invoking inner power from the Ramayana epic, Pratyaveksha focusing on proper enunciation of Sanskrit syllables for attention regulation, and Ragas for Sattva using musical tones for emotional balance.
