Our hands are magical, amazing wonders of the body that enable us to grasp and hold on to our hopes, dreams, and fears, both tangible and fantasy. These hands of ours hold far more power than we ever give them credit. Each area of the hand represents various emotions and behaviors, creating a map to our well being and consciousness.
That being said, there are gestures that can be done with our hands that unite our personal power, sense of clarity, feelings of love. These are called yoga mudras.
Woah ||
Like I said above, yoga mudras are gestures, often done using the hands, during a yoga practice or meditation (or the good ol’ day to day activities) that elicit various emotional states and levels of consciousness. They are often referred to as seals or locks and work to harness energy flow and reflexes in the body and brain.
Mudras work through our bio magnetic fields, body, and mental state; they clean out the channels within our body. By wiping out stagnant energy, we clear a path for our life force and individual truths. When mudras purify our bio magnetic field, we are shielded against negative forces. This now elevates our own vibrational power. On a very summed up level ... our vibrational power are the energies we put out into the universe like joy, happiness, and positive intention.
The idea of mudras is to regenerate and transform the mind-body principle and expand our inner and outer consciousness. There are many many more mudras than the few I selected today, so be mindful, do what you like, and love yourself always.
