Free Introduction to Mantras & Kirtan

This class is an introduction to mantras and kirtan for everyone! Kirtan is a social gathering for the purpose of chanting or singing devotional songs in one or more spiritual traditions. Chanting is also known as mantra yoga or nada yoga (sound yoga). There are no particular beliefs required and you do not have to be a musician. If you can talk, you can chant!

Science has shown that singing brings individuals into harmony with others as well as the sound itself. Oxytocin and dopamine are both released (feel good chemicals) and cortisol is reduced (stress chemical). This practice of group singing has been studied as a successful antidote for depression, stress and isolation. Come find your bliss!
