The twenty-first century has seen so many advancements—in technology, research, healthcare and education. We are now more connected through technology than our ancestors have ever been, yet we are more isolated and lonely than our ancestors ever were. The ease with which things are available to us has led to a fast-paced lifestyle. That lifestyle, accompanied by a bad diet and lack of exercise, can sometimes lead to dysregulated thoughts. Awareness of this anomaly, acceptance to change and finally, embracing tools to regulate our feelings, are required to ensure we lead balanced lives that centre our thoughts and emotions. In Ancient Chants for Modern Times , Aatmanika Ram harnesses the wisdom of some of the ancient beliefs and practices of her Indian roots, and suggests tools to help overcome any stressful situations that may arise. These suggestions are global in nature and are easy to follow irrespective of where you live. Apart from information on mantras/chants, this book also includes advice on the diet and yoga asanas to follow to ensure that the body and mind respond in a balanced proportion to any situation. This is the perfect guide to becoming emotionally stronger and stress-free in the long run.
