In my daily spiritual practice, there are a few mantras that I utilize. My personal favorite is:
Om Mani Padme Hum.
I felt called to share these hoping that they may help you in some way. They are beautiful, engaging, powerful and healing...and they have helped me in times of need. These mantras can not only be repeated, they can be lived within your body...they can help you to embody the sacred teachings and live the essence of the mantra itself. Meditations do not need to be done in just a simple sitting position, they can be your breath and live in your heart. The words can form a song that could be sung within your entire BEing.
Blessings to you as you journey on your Path... <3 p="">
