Mantra & Sound for Altered States

Join this experiential in-person workshop to discover the tradition of mantra in tantric ritual, meditation, and the theory of sound in ancient Indian philosophies.

In this workshop at The College of Psychic Studies, we will explore the ritual technologies of mantra in tantric practice and how mantra is used as a tool to access deeper states of consciousness. Together, we will practice ancient techniques of healing through the vehicle of sound. 

This in-person workshop includes:

• Exploring the theory: We will look at the structures of the subtle yogic body and how this mind-body is transformed through accessing the primordial sounds of creation. You will receive detailed explanations of the mechanisms behind the psychological processes of transformation framed in the context of ancient Indian philosophies such as Samkhya and Mimamsa.
• Applying the theory to practice: We will use various techniques to align thoughts and sound as a means to access deeper states of meditation. We will:
  • Explore the direct experience of advanced meditators and ritual practitioners who discovered healing and insight through the medium of sound. 
  • Map their subtle instructions to guide our own access to transcendental states of consciousness. 

By understanding the connection between the sacred geometry of the mind-universe and our mind-body experience, we can align the power of intention with the power of presence.

Book now to join Ann Mathie for a fascinating practical exploration of sound and the transformational properties of mantra on the mind.
