Mudras and Chakras

The Mudras undo the Blockages in the Chakras

Mudra is a Sanskrit word composed of two words: "mud", which could be translated as "pleasure", "well-being", "health", "happiness", and "dra", which means "to provide", "to produce, " contribute", "balance". In fact, the noun "mudra" comes from an adjective that means "happy", "cheerful", "jovial", "healthy", etc. The mudras are made (especially) with the hands, although sometimes the arms and other parts of the body are involved in the mudra.Thus, "mudra" could be defined as a symbol of power made with the hands that brings the practitioner peace, health and happiness.

One cannot talk about mudras without talking about the Major Chakra System of the Human Spiritual Anatomy, since the mudras exert their effect, mainly, on the chakras. It is in the chakras where the first root of traumas, frustrations or sentimental wounds is found. The mudras balance the Major Chakra System, undoing those traumas, frustrations and sorrows that unbalanced it, and therefore, also, the derived symptoms.

The mudras have an effect on the body, mind and soul because in our hands we have both a large number of nerve endings and the beginning or endings of the so-called acupuncture meridians. By joining these nerve endings or/and meridians, we create energy circuits that positively affect the human being, restoring health and well-being, thanks to the fact that they balance (mainly) their chakras. Nor can we forget the chakras of the hands, which of the so-called "minor" ones are the most important, and which are used, among other ways, to channel healing energies through the imposition of hands.

It goes without saying that the "power" of certain mudras is due to the fact that they have unconsciously become positive archetypes for the human being, such as the mudra to pray, the mudra that is made forming a circle with the thumbs and middle fingers of each hand, and which, today, implies a predisposition for meditation, and even the symbol of victory that is made by forming the "V" with the index and middle fingers.

The Positive Energetic Effect of Mudras restores Health

The mudras are usually carried out (generally) in twenty-minute sessions, where the concentration on the hands, the breath and the goal to be achieved (in this case the restoration of physical, mental, emotional, sentimental and spiritual health ), make the moment a unique and perfect act of prayer and meditation.

The mudras must be practiced sitting down, because although you can breathe better standing up, the twenty-minute session would tire the practitioner, which would cause them to lose concentration.

Breathing should be long, deep and harmonious. Breathe into the abdomen, and only through the nose, keeping the mouth closed (better with the tongue touching the palate) at all times.
Lightly press on the parts of the hands involved in the mudra until a small vibration is felt in them to form the energy circuit.

The positive energy contribution of the mudra, deep breathing, concentration, and the mind directed towards a certain goal to be achieved, turn the practice of mudras into deep and completely effective healing meditations.
