This concise guide to mudra, the subtle practice of sacred hand gestures, offers an inspiring and practical view on how to bring mudras into your yoga practice and into your everyday life. Many spiritual traditions incorporate hand gestures to calm the body, focus the mind, and set the intention in prayer or practice.

Stimulating the nadis balances and harmonizes the life current in the body, to maintain a healthy state of mind and body.
