Mahasirs Mudra for Sinus Congestion

Today take 5 minutes to practice Mahasirs Mudra, a mudra that eases sinus congestion and over-active thoughts. It draws energy down from head, and draws awareness inward.

You Will Need:

  1. A chair or way to sit comfortably

Mudras are hand positions that work with the natural energy vortices located in the palms of the hands and fingers. When we place the fingers together to create certain shapes, we redirect this energy back into the body. Think of it as creating antennae with your hands. Mudras can bring focus and attention to certain areas of the body through breath awareness, they can also have an immediate effect on the emotions. Think of them as a remote control that maintains balance between the elements and directs prana through the nadis and chakras.
