These are simple yet powerful mantras with many layers of meanings. Start repeating these 108 times for 40 days. It has been tested and held true for thousands of years for bringing about change. After the initial 40 days you can move on to another mantra or keep the last one. Whenever you introduce a new mantra please give yourself to the 40 days. This allows a complete integration and merges it with your memory to be used anytime you feel the need. To keep count use a rosary or prayer mala necklace or bracelet. A rosary has 54 beads, a mala necklace has typically 108 or 54 and a mala bracelet has 27.
Choose and use a mantra that resonates with you and leave the rest to try another time. The best time to use mantras are in the morning and evening. When they become part of you they can be used anytime, anywhere in your own mind silently repeating helping you bring new awareness to daily activities. Repeating outloud is not necessary but may be useful in the beginning to facilitate proper pronunciation.
