“I am Whole and Complete exactly as I am.”

One of my all-time favorite mudras, Mandala helps to make me feel a settled feeling in both my belly and my mind. It brings me into the present moment, beautiful moment, to simply be – without needing or trying to do something or get somewhere! I feel whole and content… mmmmmmmm. It helps me to realize how much action and force I’m putting into my life and reminding me that its great to have moments of resting in ‘be-ing’.

Left hand rests underneath Right hand. Hands rest in the lap or are held in front of the navel.

Mandala mudra is one of the few mudras that both brings energy to and balances all chakra wheels of energy, all vayu energy currents, all elements and doshas!

• Stimulates whole body breathing
• Fosters health in the entire body and all systems
  
• Balances will and surrender
  
• Feelings of Unity within oneself and connection to others and the world
  

 

Begin with 5-10 natural breaths and increase the number of breaths weekly to your practice. Mandala mudra can be used for extended seated meditation (5-30mins).
