Amidst doctor’s advice, nutritious diet and family care, most pregnant women resort to prayer and chanting mantras for mental peace. This spiritual practice, which has been going on for generations, is believed to not only give peace to the mother but also connects the child in the womb with positivity and spiritual energy. Rhythmic pronunciation of sacred words naturally regulates the rate of breathing and helps to calm the restless mind.
