‘We are Cosmic Nature’ Kelseyh Ammon and I deep dive into the mystical world of yoga mudras.
How do we introduce hand mudras to children in a light, authentic, and playful way?
I wonder for a moment … if those perpetuating war stopped for a second, took a deep breath and found themselves, their hearts, their minds bathed in the loving embrace of complete peace. Would their perspective shift, even just a little?
Yoga philosophy provides a lot of wisdom when staring down the barrel of life’s unexpected challenges, but today I’d like to share the angle that is perhaps most important to remember: that everything is temporary.
Mudras are sacred hand gestures used in yoga and meditation to promote specific states of consciousness or energy flows in the body. Mudra translates to ‘seal’ or ‘lock’, meaning we are locking and activating a particular pranic pattern within our physical bodies, to aid in healing and/or spiritual growth.
Apan mudra is a beautiful, multifaceted mudra that assists and nourishes us as we move into a new phase of our lives…
In my own experience, I feel the power of Kubera mudra almost instantly. It can be directed at life’s big events or questions, down to little, everyday occurrences like finding a car spot – and I must say, it’s worked for me when I’ve tried it!
These early experiences instilled in me a certain ‘muscle memory’ – that ‘somewhere else’ was a real place. It was an expansive sense of self that existed right alongside the ‘everyday’ me.
In these fast-paced times, it feels like we need all the help we can get. Why not try mudras? Build the fire of resilience within, with Prana and Linga mudra. Both these mudras build pranic energy and boost immunity!
