RVML Tuesday Lecture Series: Vedic Chanting and Brain Health with Peggy Leviton

RVML Tuesday Lecture Series: Vedic Chanting and Brain Health with Peggy Leviton

What does Vedic chanting have to do with brain health? Quite a lot, as it turns out. Research reveals that engaging in this ancient practice offers a wide range of benefits—physical, mental, and spiritual.
Contemporary research suggests that cognitive decline can be significantly delayed—or even potentially avoided—through two key processes: learning a foreign language and musical learning. Activating these areas of the brain increases neuroplasticity. Vedic chanting, which includes and combines elements of both language and music, is uniquely positioned to stimulate these areas of the brain

The practice of Vedic chanting supports balanced mental function and emotional equanimity. Practitioners regularly report experiencing improved cognitive health, greater emotional regulation, improved sleep quality, clarity of thought, discernment, calmness, contentment, equanimity, focus, enhanced mood.

Peggy Leviton, owner of Pegasus Sound Therapy, practices and teaches a traditional oral Vedic lineage that dates back thousands of years
