What can meditation feel like?
Meditation through
music and mantra
Kirtan is group mantra meditation set to music. Voices, drums and melody come together to create a welcoming space where the mind can settle and the heart can open. No musical experience is needed. You can listen, sing along, or simply sit quietly and take it in.
