the use of
mantra.
Through Jaap, the repetition of sacred sounds, you rebuild your brain neurons in a way that enhances and increases your projective, protective and intuitive intelligence. This in turn supports one to change unhealthful habits and cut through the dramas that we self create, moving us to the heart of the matter, the heart of life, creating internal unity leading to a more unified life.
Chanting mantras brings holistic benefits, spanning physical, mental, emotional, energetic and spiritual realms. A key advantage lies in its power to induce relaxation and alleviate stress. The rhythmic repetition of mantra syllables triggers a relaxation response, stimulates and strengthens the vagus nerve, lowering heart rate, blood pressure, and stress hormones, fostering an empowered sense of self and emotional stability to counter the impacts of life such as anxiety, tension, and meeting challenge with grace.

Regular practice enhances focus by engaging the mind in repetition, diverting it from negativity. This mental discipline extends to daily life, enhancing productivity and balance. Mantras often convey positive intentions, their vocalization reinforcing self-belief and empowerment, fostering self-confidence, emotional resilience, and optimism.
Mantra chanting serves as meditative practice, supporting one to experience their expanding consciousness. Chanting mantra is both soothing and a space to be with one’s self to recognise and reset the self.
how did resonance yoga come about.
After 30+ years of dedicated student and 20+ years as a teacher I felt called to merge all that I have learned into an evolving practice to meet the needs of these demanding times.
This unique practice blends the modalities and traditions of shakti naam yoga, sukshma vyayama, mantra meditation, kundalini tantra yoga, hatha and yin supported by her knowledge and understanding of pilates as a teacher and healing energetic bodywork. The work as a whole resembles kriya-based work, yet is not locked into a set sequence. Allowing for great flexibility, as we need in these times.
This practice will continue to evolve as I a continued dedicated student of life and personal growth do too.
respect for teachers.
I have had the blessing to be influenced by some of the best teachers in the field of yoga and it is with gratitude that I thanks those that have come before me.
