Charan Japa is a form of BreathwalkⓇ, which has been proven to reduce stress, improve health, and increase emotional control. BreathwalkⓇ is where conscious breathing, walking, and meditation come together. If you are in a wheelchair or otherwise physically unable to walk, you can move as you naturally would, bringing meditative awareness to your movement.
The idea is to walk side by side with your partner, establishing a rhythm and frequency between you. This creates a sense of trust and bonded consciousness, which, during pregnancy, is said to nurture the soul of the child.

This kriya is a walking meditation. The simple, age-old method is designed to create a rhythm and a frequency between partners. It is especially beneficial when a couple is expecting, as it increases one’s sensitivity and nurtures the soul of the child.
Charan Japa means “repeat with the feet,” and is a form of BreathwalkⓇ which integrates specific breath patterns and mantras with walking. The length and duration of this walk is a suggestion, and should be adjusted according to physical ability and what feels appropriate for you.
