Yoga is Good for your health & your soul.

Mantra yoga is a type of yoga that uses mantras to awaken the Self and deepen the meditative aspects of a physical yoga practice. Mantra yoga is an exact science that is meant to engage the mind through focusing on sound, duration and number of repetitions.

Mantras provide a sense of calm. It is a good energy that clears our minds of negativity. Intention, meaning, and vibration, or sacred sound, are the three aspects of yoga mantra. Intention is the cause, goal, and purpose of your practice.
