I was feeling a little physically crappy just from lack of sleep and travel stress. So I listened to this chant three times and I loved it. It was wonderful, sounded great and I love the percussion. I’m going to listen some more! Your chant ended up being the perfect little gift for me right now.

What’s cool and unique about this is it’s both meditative and enjoyable—you want to listen over and over to it. It’s more accessible for me than repeating spoken mantras and affirmations. They’re real songs, not spoken words w/ meditative music behind it.
