Lesson 1
Mystical And Historical Reasons For Chanting 108,000 Times
In this opening module, we explore the sacred significance of chanting a mantra 108,000 times. Rooted in ancient Indian spiritual sciences, the number 108 symbolizes cosmic completeness and the energetic convergence of the universe within the human heart. A full sādhanā, or spiritual practice, traditionally includes 108,000 repetitions - not to chase a number, but to fully embody the frequency of the mantra. When we chant Om Namah Shivaya — "I bow to Shiva, the inner Self" — we call forth clarity, transformation, and liberation. This practice honors both the personal and collective path of awakening. Alyssa Snow gently welcomes you into the rhythm of breath and sound, setting the tone for this deeply devotional journey. This module invites you to begin not as a student seeking mastery, but as a human returning home to the sacred vibration of your own truth.

Lesson 2
The Pattern And Rhythm Of The Meditation
This module introduces the simple yet powerful structure of your daily practice. You’ll chant Om Namah Shivaya 1,200 times each day over 90 days, guided by the meditation audio. Alyssa explains how this rhythm is more than repetition, it’s a pranayama practice that entrains the breath to an (approximate) four-second inhale and twelve-second exhale.
Each breath becomes a vehicle for mantra, devotion, and nervous system regulation. This breath rhythm activates the vagus nerve, calming the body and opening you to deep inner stillness. You’ll chant 12 repetitions per exhale, completing 100 breaths per session.
Rather than counting, you’re invited to surrender into the practice and let the meditation hold you. The steadiness of this daily rhythm supports transformation through consistency and breath. In this module, you’ll learn how to align with a structure that serves not only your voice, but your body, mind, and spirit. The breath becomes sacred, the mantra becomes medicine, and each day becomes a step toward inner freedom.

Lesson 3
Why Chant “Om Namah Shivaya” As Medicine for Today’s World
In a world full of noise, urgency, and distraction, the mantra Om Namah Shivaya is a balm. This module explores the deep relevance of this ancient practice in our modern times. Shiva, the great dissolver, removes illusion and ego, clearing space for truth to rise. As you chant this mantra, you create inner steadiness - an antidote to the chaos around you. Alyssa Snow gently reminds us that your practice is not only for you; it becomes collective medicine. Each repetition is a ripple of devotion sent into the field of consciousness. In showing up daily, you become a stabilizing force in a shaky world. You bring compassion, clarity, and quiet strength into the lives you touch. This module invites you to anchor in the wisdom that spiritual practice is not an escape from the world, but a way to meet it with presence and peace. You are not just chanting — you are remembering who you are, and offering that remembrance to the world.

Lesson 4
The Ritual
In this module, Alyssa invites you to create a ritual around your daily practice, transforming simple repetition into sacred ceremony. Ritual grounds your body and spirit, helping you step fully into devotional space each day. You may choose to light a candle, wear a shawl, cover your head, or use mala beads. Practicing in the same space and at the same time each day invites your nervous system to soften and recognize: this is sacred time. Your space becomes a living temple — infused with breath, sound, and stillness. Ritual offers a container for transformation, not through grand gestures but through presence and intentionality. This module is not prescriptive; it is an invitation. You are guided to craft a rhythm that reflects your truth and supports your practice. The outer ritual mirrors the inner commitment — a daily remembering that your life is sacred, your voice is sacred, and your devotion is enough.

Lesson 5
The Practice
This module offers a clear and loving guide to what your daily 90-day practice will look like. Each session begins with a short invocation and prayer. You will then enter the chanting of Om Namah Shivaya - 1,200 repetitions per session supported fully by the audio track.
Once chanting is complete, you will sit in silence for ten minutes, allowing the mantra to echo within. This is where the vibration deepens, settling into your being as japa, the sacred inner repetition. Alyssa Snow reminds you that your only responsibility is to show up each day. Let the structure hold you; let the consistency transform you. Over time, this repetition becomes your anchor, a steadying force through life’s tides. You need not seek perfection. Simply bring your whole self, again and again, into the rhythm of breath and mantra. This is where the real magic unfolds.

Lesson 6
Common Obstacles And How To Stay Committed
Staying committed for 90 days is hard and that is part of the journey.
This module names the common obstacles with compassion and offers steady encouragement. Whether you feel resistance, distraction, time scarcity, or frustration with lack of “results,” Alyssa invites you to meet each moment with softness. Repetition itself is the practice. Even when motivation wanes, showing up matters. You’re given simple tools: creating a ritual, keeping your space sacred, visual tracking of your progress, and remembering your "why." Let your practice be an offering, not a task. If you miss a day, return gently. Transformation unfolds in devotion, not perfection. This module will meet you where you are — honoring the human, supporting the seeker, and empowering you to stay with the work. Your discipline becomes a devotional rhythm, echoing through the rest of your life.

Lesson 7
The Fruits Of The Practice And The Power Of Journaling
This module invites you to listen for the subtle, often profound fruits of your daily chanting. Transformation doesn’t arrive with fireworks — it’s a quiet pause before reacting, a moment of softness, a clearer breath. Alyssa reminds us that these subtle shifts are sacred. To support your awareness and integration, she offers a journaling practice. Prompts like “Today I noticed…” or “After chanting, I feel…” become mirrors for the inner landscape.
Journaling helps bridge your inner world with your daily life, allowing the mantra’s vibration to extend beyond the cushion. Over time, this practice becomes a conversation with your soul — one breath, one word, one sacred noticing at a time. This module celebrates the beauty of presence and encourages you to trust that something is always unfolding, even when you can’t see it.

Lesson 8
Practice Session: Om Namah Shivaya 1,200 repetitions
This is your daily practice session for the next 90 days.
This practice will guide you through 1,200 repetitions of the mantra, anchored by breath and devotion. The session begins with a short invocation and prayer, gently inviting you to arrive fully - body, breath, and mind.
From there, you’ll enter the chanting practice, repeating Om Namah Shivaya 12 times per exhale, guided by a steady rhythmic voice and calming breath pace.
There is no need to count. The audio holds the structure for you. Each session includes approximately 100 slow, intentional breaths, with ~4-second inhales and ~12-second exhales, creating a natural pranayama effect that soothes the nervous system and awakens presence.
After the chanting concludes, the final 10 minutes invite you into silence. In this stillness, the vibration of the mantra continues within — a practice known as japa. A soft background resonance gently supports your meditation.
This daily practice becomes your anchor, your temple, and your mirror. Whether it feels peaceful or difficult, the mantra meets you exactly where you are. All you need to do is show up, breathe, and repeat — again and again, with devotion.

You may feel it in quiet moments, dreams, or everyday choices. You are invited to ask: What has softened? What has been revealed? How have I transformed? Integration begins with reflection and continues with intention.
You are encouraged to keep going — either continuing the 1,200 daily repetitions, or shaping a rhythm that fits your life. The invitation is to let the mantra guide your thoughts, words, and actions moving forward. This sacred journey has imprinted something deep and lasting. You are now walking with Om Namah Shivaya in your body, your breath, and your being. And the path ahead is wide with possibility.
