Yoga Mantra Chanting Certificate Course

This Certificate course is ideal for any individual or classes who teach Yoga and want to introduce Mantra chanting in their curriculum along with regular Yoga practice.  The Mantra chanting generates vibration within us the power to attain our goal and lift ourselves from the human consciousness to the higher level of divine consciousness. During chanting the frequency of sound vibrates all along the axis of the body from the perineum mooladhara chakra up through the head saharasa chakra, giving access to subtle and deep sensation and feeling which naturally suspends the normal state of the anxiety and depressed mind.

Chanting helps you develop the energy of faith to do and achieve anything which is positive for you in your life. This energy generates the belief, confidence and determination in your own self. A beneficial method to develop this is energy is by chanting mantras knowing their meanings. It will give the most advantageous benefits if one chants mantra with their meanings in mind.
