Namaste,
(I hope this is the right place for this, mods, feel free to move this thread, just please tell me if you do)
I chanted too much without drinking water and got a sore throat. I told my vocal teacher about it and she told me to stop chanting. I told her I had to chant it was part of my religion, and she said "do it in your head". She was on the other line with the city at the time so i guess she was a little impatient but how do I explain to her that chanting mantras is vital? I have lessons with her tomorrow. She told me to come in anyway and today to just drink warm water with honey and not talk too much... She also had issues with my incense burning. Is it ok to tell her i'm just gonna do Japa Maalaa anyway, like i told her about the incense? Or should i follow her instructions and do the Japa in my head? I heard there's a type of Japa Maalaa that you do inside your head, perhaps that would be better for me? Or should I just keep a glass of water near me when i do Japa Maalaa? Someone please advise me on this matter!
