This is a beautiful guided relaxation to bring awareness to your breath and guide you through a body scan as you relax deeply and allow yourself to be guided into the blissful sounds of a singing bowl and a mantra for the 'undying soul'. This mantra is believed to help with the transition of a passing soul in the first 7 days of passing or at any point in the future. Typically chanted 5 times or more to honour the departed soul and all who are connected to the soul.
