Would you like more clarity about your life?
Do you want to connect to your innate wisdom?
Would you like to immediately calm the mind?
Yes! I would too! That’s why we practice Gyan Mudra, or the mudra of wisdom.
And what is a mudra anyway? A mudra is a special placement of the fingers that encourages the mind to focus. Once the mind is focused and your energy is directed to your hands, your nervous system can now begin to relax.
Gyan mudra helps to facilitate inner wisdom by specifically connecting the thumb to the index finger. Both the Indian healing system (Ayurveda) and the Chinese healing system (Acupuncture) teach that the thumb and index finger have specific pressure points that are activated when pressed together.
This activation creates the inner balance and quiet needed to attain wisdom.
