Sanskrit Chanting, Meditation & Pronunciation Course

By HomePage, Uncategorized

Ever wonder what all those letters with dots and dashes are when reading your favourite Sanskrit chants? In this friendly group, we’ll be ‘experiencing’ and connecting with Sanskrit sounds and pronunciation to deepen and enrich our chanting, meditation, well being and spiritual practices. You’ll be able to try these yourself, in the comfort of your own home, with your ‘mute’ button on & off! There’ll be plenty of time to practise together, ask questions and have input with your favourite mantras!

Papu will offer Sanskrit sounds & chants through English Transliteration text plus tips & techniques you can try together at the sessions and practise later at home yourself to enhance your existing practices. We will also enjoy group meditation and chanting during our sessions. 

Please email info@papujordan.com for more info or book your place.

No prior knowledge of Sanskrit chanting is required for this course – 

This course is made up of 6 x weekly meet ups which will be via zoom at 1.30pm BST UK time on Tuesdays 18th & 25th April, 2nd, 9th, 16th & 23rd May.

The exchange is by donation (suggested donation £48 – £72)

All handouts will be emailed to you. All sessions will be recorded for you to review the material or if you’re unable to attend every week.

If you feel drawn to learning the ancient and beautiful sounds of Sanskrit for chanting through English Transliteration letters, please email info@papujordan.com for more info or to book your place.

Sessions are online, practical and fun as we learn the sounds and pronunciation of some of our favourite mantras for well being, meditation, relaxation, chanting, yoga, spiritual practices, teaching and/or personal development.

Looking forward to accompanying you on this journey 🙏🏽🕉

PS Sanskrit Beginners course with traditional script being planned for later this year!

Sorry – in person treatments not available

By HomePage, Uncategorized

Thank you to all my clients and students for their kind words, patience and understanding during these challenging times. For various reasons, I’ve sadly decided not to return to ‘in person’ Reiki and Massage treatments or teaching and apologise for any inconvenience or disappointment this may cause. However, I am continuing with Traditional Distance Reiki treatments and Sound Healing, Chanting & Sanskrit Teaching online events, so do email me at info@papujordan.com if these are of interest to you.

I’ve been very grateful for the opportunity to work with and support so many lovely people since 2006 – it’s been amazing to witness the changes and respite peace and relaxation can bring. I’ve been so touched by all the messages of appreciation over the years and wish everyone good health!

Love,

Meditation and Wellbeing through Chanting and Breathwork with Papu Jordan & Melanie Ashley

A chance to experience & explore the health benefits of Chanting and Pranayama on Sunday 3rd October 2021 at 7.30pm UK time.

Register for your free place at: https://www.eventbrite.co.uk/e/meditation-and-wellbeing-through-chanting-and-breathwork-tickets-171989253487

‘No time to sit and meditate’; ‘Can’t clear my mind’ ‘I’ve tried and given up’ – sounds familiar? If only you could do meditation on the go! 

‘What you can do, is chant – which you can do anywhere,’ as Papu Jordan explains. ‘Out loud or in your head, walking the dog, cooking or working! It’s active and engaging – your mind and body has something to do, whilst Sanskrit sounds act like a sonic massage.’

Papu Jordan is a Reiki Practitioner & Teacher, Meditation facilitator and Sound Healing Practitioner using the Voice, and specialist in women’s health issues.

Melanie Ashley is based in St Albans, UK and works both on line and in person. For more information about her work, see Melanieashley.online or email ignite@clarity.yoga

Register for your free place to experience the meditative and refreshing benefits of Chanting with Papu, preceded by relaxing and expansive Breath Work with Melanie at: https://www.eventbrite.co.uk/e/meditation-and-wellbeing-through-chanting-and-breathwork-tickets-171989253487

Quietening the thoughts and experiencing sound vibrations through chanting can have a relaxing and therapeutic effect on the mind, body and spirit, to help us keep well, mentally, physically and spiritually, especially with the extra challenges we’re facing today.

Sitting still and silently to meditate is not everyone’s cup of tea – not only is calm often difficult to achieve, it’s can also be challenging to find the time and space in our busy and often distracted lives. But you can chant anywhere; out loud or in your head, whilst doing other activities like walking the dog, cooking or cleaning to create a meditative and refreshing experience.

In this workshop, Melanie will settle us in with seated Pranayama breathing – we’ll connect deeply with the abdomen and share stretches to expand the rib cage so we have more space to allow sound to evolve through our bodies. Your body is after-all your first musical instrument and this ancient practice will help you to relax – to enable a connection with the un-sung voice of your soul.

Papu will tell you a bit about her Chanting & Sound Healing journey, the benefits of Chanting for our wellbeing, listen to different chants from a variety of traditions, as well as have a go yourself, in the comfort of your own home & with your ‘mute’ button on!

Chanting is a great addition to your meditation practise as it’s active and engaging – the mind and body have something to do. The repetitive nature of Chanting helps to quieten the mind whilst the Sanskrit sounds made can be described as a sonic massage – stimulating inner channels to release and let go of stresses, creating a sense of wellbeing and ultimately, connection to Love, Joy and Bliss, our true nature and essence.

Papu will offer chants, tips & techniques you can try together at the workshop and later at home yourself to experience these benefits.

These will be supported by monthly Chanting, Meditation & Wellbeing workshops including Sound Healing, learning mantras & Sanskrit pronunciation for sounding, chanting and wellbeing (fee by donation) at 7.30pm UK time on Sundays 31st Oct & 28th Nov ’21 & 30th Jan ’22.

Papu also hosts two free online social chanting groups:

Divine Names Chanting & Satsang – Sundays 10th Oct, 7th Nov & 5th Dec ’21, 7.30pm UK time

Chanting, Singing & Poetry Circle – Sundays 17th Oct, 14th Nov & 19th Dec ’21, 7.30pm UK time

Please email info@papujordan.com to book your place for these additional events.

The world needs more people to help raise the vibrational energy of our beautiful planet earth and beautiful souls so we all shine brightly!

Reiki shares are a wonderful way to meet other people interested in Reiki, practise your skills and extend your knowledge of Reiki in a supportive and non–judgemental environment. Originally started to support newly qualified students, our Reiki shares held online attract complete beginners to more established practitioners from a variety of backgrounds and lineages, all willing to share experiences, Reiki and laughter!

Reiki Skills and Share:

Weds 17th March 2021, 7.30pm – 9pm, online via zoom, ‘Look of Love’ – Sending Reiki with the Eyes

Do you sometimes find two hands are just not enough when giving a Reiki treatment? Perhaps you can’t give a ‘hands on’ treatment due to social distancing or the recipient’s anxiety, whether human or animal? Working ‘hands off’ by sending Reiki through your eyes, can have make benefits, including calming, balancing and harmonising with pure love – Reiki! Join us online on Wednesday evening, 17th March 2021 at 7.30pm UK time, to talk about and practise Reiki & The Look of Love – Sending Reiki with the Eyes at our Reiki Skills & Share workshop.

Living in challenging times, whilst supporting loved ones, friends and neighbours far and wide, can affect our own energy levels & wellbeing. Reiki Skills and Share workshops are wonderful for replenishing our own resources and exploring how we can support others whilst maintaining our own resilience & mood. In March, we’ll be looking at Reiki & The Look of Love – Sending Reiki with the Eyes, both for ‘in person’ in your household/bubble and Distance Reiki treatments. No prior experience of Reiki necessary.

There will be an opportunity to pick up tips & techniques, ask questions, share experiences, send & receive Reiki, get support and feed back.

Reiki Shares are a great way to build up confidence in sending Reiki, meet up with like minded people, learn from each other and get a lovely Distance Reiki treatment too! We’ve had some great feedback recently including how enriching the subjects are and the shifts participants have noticed afterwards.

“..a very uplifting and refreshing share and support workshop…I would recommend anyone who has not or has done Reiki to join and experience the session…”

“Papu you are so natural, soft spoken and the pace was so good that evening , we did so much as a group and the time just seemed to flow to cover everything.”
