Embodied Sanskrit
AN INTRODUCTION TO YOGA'S SACRED LANGUAGE OF LIGHT
Sanskrit is not only the language of yoga but also the language of light and serves as a bridge to unite humanity with divinity and pure awareness. In modern yoga, little is known of Sanskrit's mystical capacity and innate wisdom, yet one can learn to heal and align the body with grace and ease by cultivating intimacy with its sacred letters. Each sound itself is infinite in support and opens the hidden structures of the mind so you can effortlessly rise above the limitations of apara (unserving) beliefs and discover the true nature of your being as whole.

Embodied Mantra
AN INTRODUCTION TO THE YOGA OF SOUND
Mantras are highly tuned patterns of elevated consciousness designed to support all facets of life. They are practical in approach and powerful in results and realization. The word mantra is derived from two Sanskrit words: manas = mind, and trai = to free, and such, by cultivating a deeper foundation and relationship with mantra, the mind naturally expands. The heartfelt recitation of mantra de-conditions the mind and ease-fully washes away the veils of illusion. Mantra re-awakens inner joy, enriches your life and welcomes you back home to the wholeness of Self.
