Awaken your love and understanding for “yoga of the hands” in this 2-hour offering dedicated to the healing power of mudra.
Mudra means “seal, mark, and gesture.” In the alchemy of yoga, mudra is an essential practice to support the healthy flow of life energy in the physical and subtle bodies. Key benefits of mudras include improved mental focus and concentration, boosted energy, greater emotional balance, reduction of stress and anxiety, and increased courage and inner resolve.
Sianna Sherman guides you in this offering of mudra with breath, mantra, tantra and gentle movement. Masood Ali Khan offers a healing soundscape with the handpan and transformational mantras of the yoga tradition. Together, we:
- Understand the relationship of mudras with the five great elements and the three doshas of Ayurvedic medicine
- Learn hand exercises to warm up for your practice
- Embody hasta mudras, known as “hand mudras,” to weave into your practice and your life
Each mudra brings a unique medicine and magic into everyday life.
This session will conclude with a Rasa Yoga “mudra circuit” and guided meditation for healing, peace, and love. Rasa Yoga is a bhakti fusion of asana, mantra, mudra, myth, pranayama, meditation, functional anatomy, Tantric yoga philosophy, shadow work, and soul alchemy.
