RVML Tuesday Lecture Series: Vedic Chanting and Brain Health, with Peggy Leviton from Pegasus Sound Therapy
Vedic Sanskrit chanting is increasingly recognized for its positive impact on the brain. 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.Vedic chanting, which includes and combines elements of both language and music, is uniquely positioned to stimulate these areas of the brain. Coordinating our processes of listening to and producing unique sounds, learning and visually recognizing patterns, and applying the chanting “rules” – together these engage and stimulate different neurological functions.
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. We will explore how modern research correlates and aligns beautifully with the legacy of the ancient Rishis’ visions and chants for living a happy, balanced life!
