OM Healing is an ancient group healing technique that uses the cosmic vibration of OM for healing humanity and Mother Earth. It is taught as part of the Atma Kriya Yoga course and requires at least three people to run a group session. OM Healing is a great opportunity for Atma Kriya initiates to gather together after the course and support each others practise. The group chanting helps to heal any imbalances in the physical, mental and spiritual bodies of the participants. OM Healing can be practised by non Atma Kryia initiates and there are many groups functioning all over the world that are welcome to join.

OM Healing is a practical way to raise your internal vibration and assist in the development of your Atma Kriya Yoga practise. If no groups are functioning in your area we encourage students to set up a group of their own, either in their homes or in a local hall. This helps to build a community spirit and assists all the students with their individual Atma Kriya Yoga practise.

 

History of OM Healing

 

The origin of OM Healing is thousands of years old. It comes from ancient times in which mankind was more connected to a higher consciousness and living in harmony with the world. The Vedic culture used the powerful vibration of OM to bring about personal healing to treat imbalances in nature.

The vibration of OM aligns all the vibrations within us, which are out of harmony with the resonance of OM. Entering into this vibration; we facilitate the releasing of emotions, thoughts and negative energy, thereby bringing about healing. This process impacts all aspects of ones being: the physical, mental and spiritual. By chanting OM in the healing circle, the power of the mantra OM is enhanced and amplified. This has a combined effect of balancing and healing all the people within the group. The circle also sends out a positive vibration everywhere within the surrounding area, people and animals in the vicinity also benefit.

The healing power of OM can also be directed for the benefit of people not present in the circle. Places and life situations can also be healed by participants focusing upon them while chanting OM. Anyone who would like to receive some healing energy from an OM Healing group can give a group organiser their consent and name.

  

Chanting OM

 

The chanting of OM quickly relaxes the body and generates spiritual energy. Concentrating deeply on OM can cause the sound of the mantra to become absorbed into Kundalini (spiritual energy) which is released in the body. This can happen during OM Healing and can be felt as a hot sensation emanating from the base of the spine. When OM is chanted, the spiritual energies in the body are condensed and the mind can focus on to the mantra far easier. Such absorption fills the mind with peace and will eventually lead to increased spiritual wisdom.

 

"Om healing is like being bathed in sound. I usually experience tingling around the crown of my head, the throat and chest area, and then eventually down my arms. As the session progresses other sounds can be heard amongst the chanting which then becomes enhanced and amplified, although there are no more people present than when we started. The sound as it builds becomes almost palpable and I feel it flowing around me and around the whole group. At the end I feel very calm and centred, and am also filled with deep inner joy".

Science and OM

 

Scientists and yogis agree that at the molecular level, our bodies are systems of vibrating atomic partials. Each part of the body, each cell, gland and organ resonates with a frequency. We could say that we are composed of sound vibrations. Even the difference between solids, liquids, gases, sound and light are merely a difference in their vibratory rates.

The body as a system vibrates at a rate of approximately 7.8 - 8 cycles (Hertz) a second when it is relaxed and calm. The Alpha waves, which correspond to a state of relaxation, are also in the 8 cycles per second range. The Earth itself vibrates at the same vibrational frequency of 8 cycles per second. When we feel that every thing has the same vibration, we truly experience the unity of life.

OM Healing is an easy way to feel the oneness of life because we begin vibrating at the same frequency as Mother Earth!
