Chanting sacred sounds is an integral part of yoga, helping practitioners experience yoga’s ultimate purpose: the union of our body, mind, heart, and spirit. The vibrations and rhythms take us beyond the level of the intellect into a state of body-centered restful awareness.

The beautiful Sanskrit chants on the Chopra Center Sacred Chants CD are expressed in their full purity by Grammy-winning singer/songwriter Beth Nielsen Chapman. The transformative potency in each sacred chant is enlivened by vocalist Kirby Shelstad and the universal music of drums, Indian flute, mandolin, tabla, violin, cello, keyboard, and guitar.

For thousands of years these sacred chants have helped people access expanded states of consciousness, happiness, and peace. Now you can experience the healing power of these timeless chants in the sanctuary of your own home. Listen to the chants as you move through your yoga practice, or sit quietly with your eyes closed and let the vibrations take you into a deep meditative state.

The Chopra Center for Wellbeing was founded by Deepak Chopra, M.D. and David Simon, M.D. two of the world's foremost leaders in the field of mind-body medicine. The Chopra Center is revolutionizing common wisdom about the crucial connection between body, mind, spirit, and healing.
