Sanctuary: Om ~ Chant ~ Prayer is an hour in which you can gather with others for some peace, hope, and prayer.

It is an hour in which you can tune out the news, chaos, and panic.

It is a time to drop everything so you can go within.

Chant, mantra, and prayer are powerful, especially so in times of trouble.

Chants and mantras are sacred sounds that heal and have been used for millennia in every sacred tradition. Sacred sounds help you invoke and connect with peace, hope, clarity, and inspiration within you.

Prayers are your call to God/ Goddess/ the Divine as you make your way forward anytime, and certainly through these times. Collective prayers are particularly powerful, which is what we will have here.

Sanctuary is spiritual, not religious.

We will gather online on Zoom.

What will we do in Om ~ Chant ~ Prayer?

I begin by welcoming participants, saying an opening prayer, and creating sacred space. I invite you to set your intention for the session.

We will chant Om for 20 minutes. This has not only powerful spiritual benefits, but powerful healing benefits for your body, emotions, and mind. ( I have a tanpura (Indian instrument and crystal singing bowls) that I will use to accompany the chant portion.

We will chant 1-2 world chants for 20 minutes. Some will be Sanskrit mantras; others will be world chants. I welcome your suggestions for chants for future events.

This is our collective time for prayer. Please bring a prayer, a poem, or any written words (yours or another’s) that open and connect you to the Sacred to share with us. It doesn’t have to be long, though it can be. Even a few lines that are meaningful will be wonderful. This is an opportunity to voice your prayers which matter profoundly to our world at this time. Your voice and heart are incredibly powerful to create change not only for yourself but for our beautiful world.

If you have any questions, feel free to contact me.
