Mantram Repetition Program
Welcome
How can I improve my health and wellbeing?
I offer consulting and coaching services to individuals and organizations to get the benefits from implementing mindful techniques from the Mantram Repetition Program (MRP). Research demonstrates that the MRP reduces psychological distress, improves health and wellbeing, and helps us slow down and focus attention to improve personal performance.
I learned about mantram repetition from Sri Eknath Easwaran, a spiritual teacher who founded the Blue Mountain Center of Meditation in Tomales, CA. Please explore the site to access a wide range of useful resources, research, and media.
If you are interested in learning more about the MRP, please contact me.

About Mantram
A mantram (Sanskrit word meaning “to cross the mind”) is a word of power, a deeper inner level of speech containing divine syllables or sounds that have been handed down for generations. Mantrams have spiritual associations and when repeated silently, continually, throughout the day or night, mantram repetition helps one to:
-
Focus attention
-
Slow thinking for mental clarity, increased awareness
-
Interrupt the stress response
-
Produce a mental change in the person who repeats it
-
Tap into one's inner spiritual resource
-
Transform consciousness
