12 Powers Chants
This collection of chants was inspired after taking a class on the 12 Powers at Unity of Indianapolis. I chose to write these chants as a continued study and to use as monthly meditations for Unity of Indianapolis. These chants have become a very important part of my Spiritual journey. May they help you discover the power within you.

Charles Filmore, co-founder of Unity, who created the concept of the 12 powers relates each power to a disciple and an energy center in the body. In writing these chants I took this into consideration. The 12 powers correlate with the 7 chakras and 5 other physical body areas. Each chant was originally composed in the key that corresponds with the associated chakra or energy center. In the case of the 5 other physical body areas, I used the closest chakra to assign the key. Music is vibration. As you listen to or sing these chants, I encourage you to place your focus on the energy center associated with that chant.
