An Inner Rhythms deep body meditation with Mariane Karou that teaches specific mechanics for opening the mind. You begin by relaxing the entire face — releasing the tension held there to create open pathways throughout the whole system — then bring attention to the space surrounding the crown of the head, imagining empty openness above and around it. From the crown, awareness moves to the brain stem at the base of the skull, where breath is directed to breathe directly into that junction between spine and skull. These three anchors — a relaxed face, spacious crown, breath in the brain stem — are woven together and then connected to the ground, so that opening upward and rooting downward occur simultaneously.
The music is Torkom Ji's Quantum Harmonix — a sound experience tuned to 432 Hz, designed to invoke deep states of consciousness and assist the body in finding rest and harmony. The harmonic overtones move through a cellular journey that revitalizes mind, body, and soul.
