Mantra is a Sanskrit term, with “man” which translates to mind and “tra” to release or to free from.

In the yoga tradition, a key element of meditation is the repetition of a sound or a prayer—a mantra. 

This year’s International Yoga Day, June 21, 2021 has passed but still think of a mantra — a word or phrase you repeat out loud or silently during meditation to instill peace and tranquility in your mind.

Mantra meditations can make a lot of difference, especially if you have trouble concentrating or getting in the right frame of mind as this promotes focus and intention.

According to healthline.com, mantras help increase self-awareness, reduce stress, a greater sense of calm, increase self-compassion and a more positive outlook in life.

Here’s a list of mantras CDN Digital created for you.

“I’ll release the things out of my control.”

“Whatever my mind can conceive it can achieve.”

“I am the master of my thoughts.”

“I am thankful for everything I am.”

“I am worthy of love and peace and abundance.”

“I choose to be happy, to love fully.”

“I am stronger than my excuses.”

“Progress is more important than perfection.”

“Today, accept what is instead of resenting what isn’t.”

So Ka-Siloys why don’t you try choosing the mantra that you would want to use today to meditate and free one’s mind from stress of daily life.
