Om Life: Gyan Mudra

3/15/2016

The sanskrit word mudra translates to 'gesture' or 'attitude' and typically refers to a position of the hands or fingers. Using a mudra enables you to direct the flow of subtle energy in your body and to attune yourself to higher states of consciousness.

Gyan Mudra
Also known as the Seal of Knowledge, Gyan mudra is one of the most popular hand positions. To create gyan mudra, lightly touch the tips of your thumb and index finger. Extend your 3 remaining fingers.

How to Use It
This mudra can be practiced anytime, anywhere. Most often it is performed while seated in meditation with arms extended and palms turned up on the knees. To receive the full benefits of this mudra, practice it for 30-45 minutes each day. Use gyan mudra to calm your mind and body, expand your consciousness, enhance your inner wisdom and increase concentration.
