Halim

Interior Scene c. 1840 American 19th Century

Mantra

Halim (pronounced ‘hleem’) is a stabilizing metric. Unlike mantras designed to stimulate or project energy (like the fiery Hrim), this sound is engineered to hold and ground it. It replaces the activating qualities found in other seed sounds with a heavier, steadying influence that combines the expansive nature of space with the density of earth. Functionally, this is the sound of the “hard stop.” It is used to arrest momentum that is already in motion—spiraling thoughts, nervous agitation, or reactive speech. If your mental state feels frantic or scattered, Halim acts as a dynamic brake, neutralizing external inputs and sealing your energetic boundaries. Think of this mantra as a tool for total inhibition of movement. It brings the senses and breath to a standstill, allowing you to regain composure and control. Because of its intensity, it is best used when you need to abruptly cut through noise to establish immediate, unshakeable stillness.
