Day 8 • The Mind and Mantra
Today is a big day—you’re about to explore one of the most written-about topics in all of yoga: the mind.
The mind is a slippery slope; it’s easy to get caught up in trying to understand it intellectually. In the end, the most effective way to truly learn about the mind is through quieting it—through meditation.
Today, you’ll be introduced to the lineage practice of Shambhavananda Yoga Mantra Meditation, a living practice that has been passed down from teacher to student over the past four generations and 150 years of lineage masters. And now, it is being offered to you.
Before we jump into the practice of mantra meditation, we’ll begin with a short yoga session to prepare the body and mind for stillness.
Namaste!
