BRAHMA MUDRA

Brahma Mudra Pranayama or Gesture of Supreme Spirit Breath opens the whole lungs.

TECHNIQUE

Brahma Mudra

Sit in any comfortable sitting position like Sukh Asana, with the spine in a upright position.

Place the thumbs into the palms, and curl the other fingers over the thumbs.

Take these fists in such a way that the knuckles are pressed together, and the inner wrists are uppermost.

Press both hands into the body at the level of the pelvic bone.

Close the eyes and breathe naturally, through the nose.

Brahma Mudra

Try to maintain awareness of each breath moving into and out of the nostrils for two or three minutes.

BENEFITS

This Mudra opens the whole of the lungs.

It stimulates Vyana Vayu, the Prana which acts as our ‘second wind’ balancing and ‘topping up’ the other Pranas whenever they get low.

It has the effect of revitalizing the whole system.
