This course was designed to assist you, the yoga teacher, in understanding the beauty and power of mantra in general, and the Gāyatrī mantra, specifically.

You can use it to develop your own mantra practice or to guide your students, or both. It's our wish that you discover for yourself in a personal way the concepts that are presented here.

It's VERY important that once you begin this series, you complete the entire course—especially part 4.

Each video is short and contains powerful ideas that are necessary in the understanding of the Gāyatrī mantra and how it works on you on very deep levels.

The slides for all four modules have been made available on the fourth module...but not until then. So be sure to watch them all.
