Today’s Meditation for August 17

The Energy Mudra

To gain a fresh perspective and a boost of confidence and energy, practice the apan mudra during meditation.  (Mudras are positions – most of the hand – that affect the body’s energetic system.)

• Sit comfortably and rest your hands on your thighs, palms facing up.
• On each hand bring the tips of your middle and ring fingers to touch the tip of your thumb.
• Allow your index and little fingers to extend softly forward.
• With your eyes closed hold this mudra for five minutes, two to three time a day, or as you feel you need it.
