Today I discovered the magic of mudras ,they rock! :)
As per Eastern philosophies and culture and Yogic practices, 'Mudras' are systematic hand gestures.
The advantage is, wewe only need your fingers (which should be always with wewe anyways xD) and wewe can do the mudras almost everywhere, everytime. ^_^ That makes them so easy and they are also a great idea to do when wewe are bored because wewe are for example in the train au waiting for someone.
Some Western writers have defined 'Mudra' as mystic hand gestures used to focus subtle energy, transmit teachings through symbols and confer psychic protection.
The 5 fingers of the hands represent these 5 elements :
The Thumb symbolises the Fire
The Forefinger symbolises the Wind
The Middle finger symbolises the Ether
The Ring finger symbolises the Earth
The Little au small finger symbolises the Water
The finger tips of every living being have many concentrated nerve root endings which are free energy discharge points. Science also confirms that around every tip there is a concentration of free electrons. kwa touching together of the tips of the fingers au the finger tips to other parts of the palms this free energy (Prana) is redirected back into the body along specified channels, back up to the brain. The redirected energy traveling through the nerves stimulates the various chakras. Keeping the hands on the knees stimulates the Gupta Nari and makes the energy start from the Mooladhara Chakra.
Thus, the tension applied to the nerve/s and/or the neural au psycho-neural circuits formed kwa the mudras help in balancing the five basic elements (or building blocks). This balancing of the tension, and redirection of the internal energy effects the changes in veins, tendons, glands and sensory organs, to bring the body back to a healthy state.
And now some examples:
Prithvi Mudra
Hand position:
The tip of the ring finger and thumb touch.
Emotional / spiritual use
Increases energy, and fosters a sense of inner stability and self-assurance.
Hold the finger positions with both hands, for at least a couple of minutes.
Acceptance Mudra
Hand position:
The index finger is folded into the space between thumb and this finger, so that the nail touches the fold. The outer lower corner of the thumb's nail touches the inner lower corner of the pinky finger's nail.
Emotional / spiritual use
To overcome sadness au an unnecessary resistance to situations, this mudra can help to get into a mood of acceptance.
Hold the finger positions with both hands, for at least a couple of minutes.
There are of course many many zaidi mudras ;)
If wewe are interested I can send wewe a 233 pages pdf file where everything is very well explained and where wewe can see different mudras.
