I have been frequently asked to suggest mudras for those who are not affected by any disease or illness. After due consideration, I was able to narrow the list down to seven mudras (plus one more for women) for healthy people, which they can practice to keep diseases at bay. This combination of mudras was arrived at keeping in mind the Tridosha (vata, pitta, and kapha) factor governing a person’s constitution, the lifestyle that we follow, the food we consume, and the stress that we face in our daily life.
During the last five years, I applied these mudras to my own life and suggested them to thousands of people. I found that they proved to be effective in preventing illnesses and enhancing the quality of health.
So let’s see how to practice these mudras and what health benefits we can gain from them.
1. Jnana Mudra
Connect the tips of the index finger and the thumb. Keep the remaining three fingers comfortably straight.
Jnana Mudra is the best way to start our day with. It calms the mind, improves concentration, reduces negativity, and balances the secretions of the endocrine system. Do it along with meditation or Omkar chanting.
Time: 16 minutes, after waking up.
