VEDIC CHANTING
Vedic Chanting is energizing, centering and calming. It requires precise measure and cadence, correct enunciation, grammatical formation and modulation of sound and breath.

Navtej will then lead the group through guided chanting of selected chants from the Vedas and/or the Upanishads.
