Sacred Chanting

SACRED CHANTING

Drumming and chanting have profound healing and transformative powers. When coupled together, they move us to a level of awareness beyond form, a place where we discover our own divinity.
Different rhythms and chants have specific purposes for invoking or paying homage to spirit beings and deities. They create a vibratory resonance that allows these spirits to be called forth.
Most chants are like mantras - phrases repeated over and over. The syllables of each spoken word resonate specific qualities of energy. You can use different chants for different intents and purposes.

CHANTING ALBUMS:

This new up-dated version of guided breathing exercises and toning through the chakras is a fabulous self-help guide to clearing and activating the energy centres in the body. Jana leads you through each chakra, track by track, with guided breathing instructions and a 'tone' or vowel sound for each energy centre. This is followed by a short piece of meditation music and then seven chants which start at the crown chakra and finish at the root.

(The exercises are currently only in English, but there will be a Spanish and French version soon...)

CHAKRA MANTRAS

This Sanksrit chanting album is a beautiful blend of Jana's voice, flute-playing and keyboard drones. It takes you on a meditation journey through the chakras, chanting to different Hindu Gods and Goddesses, including Ganesh, Saraswati, Tara, Hanuman and Shiva. It has a very dreamy quality to it which takes the listener deep into the magical world of Sanskrit chanting. It is, in a sense, a spiritual training tool, because it is an introduction to Sanskrit mantra chanting as a daily meditation practice. It is recommended for everyone wanting to work regularly on the chakras

MEDICINE WHEEL CHANTING

You can sing along with the first 10 chants of the Medicine Wheel on Jana's first two Drum Spirit practice albums:

DRUM SPIRIT MEDICINE JOURNEY

DRUM SPIRIT SOUL JOURNEY

BUFFALO DREAMING

An album of beautiful Native American sacred chants, which reflect and celebrate our connection to the wheel of life. The Medicine Wheel is an ancient symbol of the totality of life, of cycles, seasons, elements and the four worlds of Grandmother Earth. There are 20 sacred chants on this new CD, ranging from 'Birthing Song' to 'The Raven Chant' - it is made with great respect and acknowledgment of the tribal wisdom from which they originate. Jana teaches the chants in her 'Drum Journeying' workshops and classes.
