138: The Habit of Mantras Reducing Anxiety and Increasing Healing and Happiness with Suzanne Mongrain-Smith

Author: Lorrie Mickelson, Habits & Self Care February 8, 2025 Duration: 48:34

Today, I am thrilled to welcome February - and heart health month - by having a chat with my friend, certified RYT Nada Yoga (sound yoga) Teacher Suzanne Mongrain-Smith.


Suzanne is going to share with us some insight into how chanting and mantras can be healing for our mind and body: A little something we can all use not just in heart health month, but all year long and in every season!


Suzanne uses mantra, meditation and chanting in her daily life to increase well-being and inner peace, and she wants to share this amazing practice with you.


About Suzanne’s work (from her website): Kuvalaya is an extension of her passion and soul gifts, shared in original compositions and recordings, as well as live chanting workshops. Kuvalaya is arranged and produced by Daniel Chartrand at Studio SoNord, one of Suzanne's first music students, and recorded with support vocals by her daughters.


Grab your tea or coffee, and get ready to warm up your vocal chords.
