‘Vajra’ means diamond and it directs breath and energy into the third chakra called Manipura, the ‘city of gems’: I find this name gives both an amazing visual and feeling of light, sparkling radiance within my center!
“My inner jewel guides me to live my true purpose.”
HOW TO: Hands float in front of the solar area just below the ribs, with the ‘diamond’ shape pointing outward from solar plexus.
Hold for 5-10 natural breaths. State the intention statement three times out loud, then silently. Notice how you feel in body, mind, and emotions. No known cautions.
FIVE ELEMENTS: Vajra Mudra activates and balances the ????Fire Element, helping you to glow with inner light, realize the vision for your life, and also aid digestive fire called Agni.
