Open Lotus Heart Meditation

This meditation opens and strengthens the Heart Center, allowing old emotional wounds and hardened defenses to dissolve into the vibration of the mantra. As the heart softens and expands, you align with your true Self, cultivating your ability to stay open and connected to others. 

By embracing your connectedness with all that is, you can discover your unique essence and authentic presence. Trust the process as emotions arise, and immerse yourself fully in the sound current to access profound healing and self-realization.
