Jai Ma Kirtan
We come together in circle to sing from our hearts.
An invitation for all mothers upon their journey (pre-conception, pregnancy, postpartum, aunties, grandmothers) and mother-care workers (including doulas/birth-keepers, midwives, practitioners and nannies) to come together in reverence and devotion to honour the Sacred through the practice of chanting. This is a safe breastfeeding space, please bring any extra pillows you need to feel supported and comfortable. Your families; bubs, children and partners are welcome, we just ask that no little-ones are left unattended. In order to support the group if any disruptions arise with the children, we kindly ask you to take a pause outside together.
Together we will chant mostly Sanskrit mantras coming from the tradition of Bhakti Yoga, the Yoga of love and devotion. No experience with Kirtan or singing is needed, just come with an open heart. We finish each circle with a short gentle and relaxing guided yoga nidra/sound healing/meditation.
The inspiration for this regular circle was sparked by Prema’s love for tending to mothers in pregnancy and postpartum. Finding there was a need for more sacred spaces that support both self-care and community connection.
*Currently this offering is on pause hoping to continue in 2025.
