Jill Bormann
Mantram Repetition Program
Welcome
I have dedicated my nursing research career to the development, testing, and implementation of the Mantram Repetition Program (MRP) - a mind-body-spiritually integrated intervention for symptom management and wellbeing.
​
I learned about mantram repetition from Sri Eknath Easwaran, a spiritual teacher who founded the Blue Mountain Center of Meditation in Tomales, CA.
