A Mudra is a hand gesture, an asana (posture) for the hands.Throughout history, hand gestures have been used by all civizations and religions.From the priests and priestesses of ancient Egypt to Romans,Persians, Mayans, Gigians, Turks and many more.The word Mudra means 'seal', because a mudra creates an impression on the subtle body like a letter that is sealed with hot wax.Yoga mudras are symbolic gestures often practiced by the hands and fingers.
They facilitate the flow of energy in the subtle body and enhance one's journey within.
If you are new to Yoga the above can seem a bit confusing, as to which Mudra to use and what is the difference?Different areas of the hands are connected to specific areas in the body and the brain.
So when we place our hands in yoga mudras, we stimulate different areas of the brain and create a specific energy circuit in the body.By doing this we generate a specific state of mind.
The universe is made of 5 elements and each finger on our hands is representative of one of these five elements.
The thumb represents the universal consciousness and fire.
The index finger represents air and individual consciousness.
The middle finger represents connection.
The ring finger represents earth.
The little finger represents the element of water.
When these elements are not in balance we can experience disease in the body.
Mudras are a way of creating balance within all these elements
