30 Minutes. Mantra, Mudra, Yantra. All Levels.
Mantra, Mudra and Yantra Healing in Kathmandu
A short, focused 30-minute session for when the mind is overactive. It uses a repeated sound (mantra), a hand position (mudra) and a visual focus (yantra) at the same time. At our centre in Tarkeshwor with Swami Anish Ji or Anupam Chidananda, from $30.
What is mantra, mudra and yantra healing?
Mantra, mudra and yantra healing is a 30-minute session that gives you three things to focus on at once. Mantra is a repeated sound for the mind. Mudra is a hand position for the body. Yantra is a simple shape for the eyes. Many people find it easier to settle with all three than with one on its own.
A mantra is a short syllable or phrase, repeated aloud or silently. It brings attention back to one point when thoughts are racing. A mudra is a simple hand position that helps you breathe calmly and feel more grounded. A yantra is a geometric drawing, often of squares, triangles and a central point, that gives the eyes one place to rest.
With the sound, the hand position and the visual focus all in place, you are not asked to force your mind to be silent. You simply keep coming back to the three points of focus.
The session is short, so it suits days when you do not have time for a longer one. Come with one intention, such as calm, focus, grounding or emotional balance, and we shape the half hour around it.
Where do mantra, mudra and yantra come from?
All three come from Indian yoga and meditation practice, and the words are Sanskrit. Mantras are used in chanting and meditation. Mudras are hand positions used in pranayama and seated practice. Yantras are drawings used as a point of focus.
You do not need to follow any religion to book. There is no physical contact beyond perhaps showing you a hand position. The practitioner chooses the mantra, mudra and yantra around your intention for the day and guides you through them.
The same tools are taught in more depth in our 200-hour yoga teacher training, which includes 25 hours of mantra and relaxation practice.
What happens in a 30-minute session?
A session runs in four steps: a short settling, mudra and yantra, then mantra, and a brief close. It starts quickly, because it is built for when time is limited.
A short settling
You tell the practitioner what you want most today, such as calm, focus, grounding or emotional balance, and get comfortable.
Hand and form
You take up a mudra and rest your eyes on a yantra. Together they give a busy mind something precise to hold.
Sound joins in
The practitioner adds a mantra on top to sharpen your focus, and guides the pace as you practise.
Close
A brief close, and you are ready to go back to your day.
It pairs well with our online morning meditation, which has a mantra focus on Fridays. For a longer session on the same visit, see the 60-minute sound healing session.
Who books this session, and when?
The session suits anyone whose mind is busy and who has half an hour. It suits all levels, and no experience is needed.
