Week 2
Heart as healer
Congratulations making it to week two!
We hope you are starting to feel the benefits of a daily practice and have already begun to notice the subtle, but powerful shifts that come out of a Sadhana.
This week we will be working with the heart as the healer. The nadis, or energy channels from the heart extend out of the heart centre, down through the arms and into the palms of the hands - this is way we sometimes refer to ‘healing hands!’ This weeks Sadhana will allow you to start to access the healing power of the heart through mantra and meditation. Begin to unlock your own healing potential.
How this week works
We recommend that every day you commit to:
The Morning Mantra for Healing Practice
The Heart Meditation
Do your best to add some other heart centred practices
Continue to write in your journal, each day after practice.

Additional Practices & Activities you can try
