The practice of Kirtan has been found to provide a number of mental health benefits, including improved mood, decreased anxiety, stress, and cortisol levels, as well as decrease insomnia. Hemant combines Bhakti and Gyana yoga paths. During this session he will take us through chants based on seven different ragas, each aligned with a chakra, the energy centers. Each mantra is examined for pronunciation and meaning prior to engaging in chanting (Ohm, Ram, Hare Krishna and more). Finally all participants will be invited to express themselves through dance and end the shared experience with the Loka samasta sukhino bhavantu!
