Its literal translation is \u201ca tool for the mind\u201d. It was designed, thousands of years ago, to help practitioners access their own higher consciousness. The repetition or chanting of a mantra encourages the mind to enter a more focused, meditative state.<\/p>\n<p>A mantra is said to be fueled by the act of consistent repetition, with consistency being the key. Used once, a mantra can leave us feeling focused, calm and present. But, by repeating a thought, phrase or idea, it starts to gain strength and energy within our psyche, helping us anchor to the present moment and our breath.<\/p>\n<p>We\u2019ve put together 25 mantras or affirmations to help calm you down and come into the present moment. Pick a new one each day or stick with one that feels good for a week or so. You can say them out loud, write them down, save them to your phone screen, or post them on a sticky note somewhere you will see them in times of stress.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">Love mantras?
