In these groups, Mary brings people together to practice Japa (repetition) meditation of Sanskrit Mantra. This form of meditation helps to raise our individual and collective vibration as we address personal and collective karmic issues such as health, prosperity, spiritual advancement, peace and protection.
We work with mantras from the collected works of Thomas Ashley-Farrand.
