Vedic Chants are an ancient and vast collection of Indian Sanskrit hymns drawn for the Vedas (Hindu Scriptures) over 3500 years ago and preserved by oral tradition to this day. These beautiful chants are considered sacred foundational guides to spiritual life and can be transformative for all peoples. Vedic chants are the source of mantras used in meditation.

In these sessions, we will learn the basic concept of Vedic chant – using the traditional method of listening and repeating. These three chants guide us to a peaceful heart, health, nourishment of body and spirit, and clarity. All are welcome to participate. No knowledge of Sanskrit is necessary. No musical or vocal ability is needed. Just an open ear and heart.

Patricia Barrier, RYT-500 is a registered yoga teacher who has studying Vedic Chant for 10 years. She meets weekly with her chant teacher and a dedicated group of chanters.
