Did you know that regular chanting of slokas energize 

the brain, promote healing, and help in stress 

management?

Make shloka chanting a part of your everyday life:
Should be done in a melodious pattern and never in a harsh or hurried fashion. Experts recommend that the Gayatri Mantra to be chanted at the range of 4 - 8 numbers per minute, the Om Namo Narayanaaya at 38 -62 and the Om Namah Sivaaya at 42 - 68 range per minute
*The effect of breath while chanting. Research shows that a chanter's respiration rate slows from the normal 12 to 15 breaths per minute to between five and eight breaths per minute, which is considered optimal for mind-body health.
* The audible sonic effect produced while chanting. This reflects the pleasurable sensations and healing effects of extended vowel sounds typical of sacred chants, like shlokas.
* Chanting of shlokas can indirectly help in keeping the mind alert and sharpening the intellect. The brain requires more oxygen than any other organ in the body and for the brain to function efficiently an adequate supply of oxygen is essential. Since chanting of shlokas is accompanied by systematic rhythmic deep breathing it brings in an added supply of oxygen.
*Chanting also helps in releasing beneficial endorphins, which act as a pain reliever in the body, and boosts the natural metabolic process of the body.
• Chanting can help in stress management
*Chanting shlokas everyday lowers blood pressure, normalizes heart beat rate, brain wave pattern, adrenalin levels, and even reduces high cholesterol levels. Doctors observing these health benefits are now starting to advise their patients to chant shlokas daily. For those unable to chant, doctors advise listening to shlokas being chanted as this too can have a positive effect on the body
