Prepare for meditation in a blissfully balanced state between the mind, body and soul. From the Shanka Vansiya Ayurveda lineage, brought to the US by Vaidya Rama Kant MIshra, select marmani are activated to open your heart lotus, allowing the light of the soul to radiate over the mind and body, creating a state of Samadhi.
