I'm doing a meditation chanting "Hummee Hum, Brahm Hum." The instructions

for the the breath are as follows: "The breath will come automaticallyas your

chant." However, I can chant the phrase comfortably six times per breath or

really stretch it out one time per breath. So what is the proper way to chant.

Should it be once per breat?. As many times as possible per breath? Or some

happy median?

 

And I appreciated Melanie's suggestion of accupuncture for my elderly father w/

energy problems, but there are none in the rural area he lives. Any further

suggestions would be most appreciated.

 

Sat Nam,

 

Joe

hi joe,

in response to the question of decreased energy with

your dad. typically as folks get older they tend to

drink very little and in fact do not get the natural

"thirst" as in the younger years. maybe finding a

beverage that he enjoys (preferably water)

he might feel better. also if he is inactive he is

exhausted from not moving..........maybe five simple

exercises a day would help.........any movement

good luck anne

Dear Joe.,

> I'm doing a meditation chanting "Hummee Hum, Brahm Hum." The

instructions for the the breath are as follows: "The breath will come

automaticallyas your chant."

 

This means just chant and let the breath take care of itself. Which ends up

periodic breaths that come in automatically. Keep the rhythm of the mantra

going without stopping it with the breath.
