Chanting is such a wonderful way to quiet the mind and lead it into a deeper state of awareness.  It is especially beneficial for those who have a tough time stopping the mind's endless chatter.  I find it is the musical sequence that initially holds the mind's attention, and thus, less effort of concentration is needed.

The ritual of meditating with a full moon has been with us for centuries and also enhances a focus for the mind.   Both the full moon and new moon mark times where the strength of our intention is magnified.  The full-moon chanting sessions at the Integral Yoga Institute can uplift the mind and focus it in a positive direction.  During the full moon, the Gayatri and Maha Mitrunjaaye mantras are chanted;  the sound of Om is chanted for the new moon.
