Activate Your Chakras With Bija Mantras

Bija mantras are single-syllable sounds in Sanskrit, believed to contain powerful vibrations.

Each Bija mantra corresponds to a specific chakra in the body, such as "LAM" for the root chakra and "OM" for the crown chakra. Chanting these mantras is thought to help balance and activate the chakras, promoting overall well-being.

In Sanskrit, “bija” translates to “seed.”

 In our video below, Becky Cresswell demonstrates how we can activate the third eye chakra by toning "OM".

The Benefits Of Toning Bija Mantras

• Chakra Balancing: Each Bija mantra corresponds to a specific chakra in the body. Chanting these mantras is believed to help balance and align the corresponding chakras, promoting physical, emotional, and spiritual well-being.

• Energy Activation: Bija mantras are thought to carry powerful vibrations that can stimulate and awaken dormant energy within the body. Chanting these mantras can help activate this energy, promoting vitality and inner strength.

• Mental Clarity: Regular practice of toning Bija mantras can help calm the mind, reduce stress, and enhance mental clarity. The repetitive nature of chanting can induce a meditative state, promoting relaxation and focus.

• Emotional Healing: Bija mantras are believed to have a profound effect on the emotions. Chanting these mantras can help release emotional blockages, promote self-awareness, and foster a sense of inner peace and harmony.

• Spiritual Growth: Bija mantras have been used for centuries as a tool for spiritual growth and self-realization. Chanting these mantras can deepen one's connection to the higher self and the divine, leading to a greater sense of purpose and fulfillment in life.
