Hatha Yoga fans know that this practice contains about 25 mudras. All of them are performed under the supervision of a guru. Mudras are used to enhance breathing, while meditating for a deep concentration of consciousness. Alternative healing and official medicine recognize that each finger is responsible for a specific area in the human body.
Therefore, the hands always mirror the physical and mental health of a person. Mudra from a headache, for example, can not only relieve malaise, but also positively affect immunity, balance the emotional background. "Finger dance" is a certain gesture or position that helps to feel the flows of vital energy and learn how to manage them.
Where is the Buddhist welcome
If you carefully look at the photo of a yogi sitting in the "lotus" position, you will find that his hands are on his knees in a special gesture. This is the mudra that is capable of creating powerful flows. Sometimes we use gestures in everyday life, not realizing that we unconsciously resort to this ancient technique. For example, we show our child with a combination of fingers the figure of a "bunny", which is displayed on the wall as a shadow. If you have a certain problem, then you need to choose 2-3 exercises and practice them three times a day.
Headache Mudra
In fact, there are many reasons for this ailment: stress, colds, high (low) blood pressure, meteorological sensitivity. Mahashirs-Mudra or “Big Head” is able to relieve pain in the frontal, temporal and occipital parts. Before class, you need to massage these areas and rub the feet with water and vinegar.
So, a headache mudra implies the ability to visualize energy waves. To do this, take a breath and feel how tension increases in the head. Then exhale and mentally release the energy waves outward, as if they were sun rays.
Rub your palms until you feel warm. Then connect the tips of the middle and thumb. Place the nameless one in the middle of the palm, and tilt the little finger to the side. At first, this may seem difficult, but over time the hands will remember the technique and will fold mechanically. It is necessary to make such a gesture with both hands three times a day, keeping it for 5-6 minutes. In this case, continue to visualize how excessive tension (energy flows) dissipates from your head.
Little tricks
While doing wise, do not forget to take in and out breaths. After a while, try to feel how cool and free from various negatives your head is. In conclusion, you can read the affirmation: “I love myself, my body and thoughts. They are clear, bright, clean and do not burden my head with malaise. " Smooth your face with your hands and smile at yourself in the mirror. Try to be at ease for 10 minutes. Mudra from a headache is more effective if you drink soothing tea with medicinal herbs: chamomile, motherwort, feverfew, meadowsweet.
Energy Saturation Technique
It often happens like this: a person does not feel painful processes, but he still has a persistent feeling of malaise. Consider the wise who are able to increase the energy potential, which serves as a shield against adverse circumstances. One such practice is called the “Mudra of Dawn.”
So, this lesson is best done outdoors. Raise your palms to the sky and mentally imagine how celestial bodies send healing streams to you, then connect all your fingers to the “lock” position. Please note: in men, the thumb of the right palm should tangibly press the base of the phalanx of the finger of the left hand.
Therefore, the right finger should be on top of the left extended upward. Female representatives should “build” the castle a little differently. The main finger of the left palm should be placed on top of the thumb of the right.
It should be above the left index finger. For 5 minutes, mentally hold the received energy and evenly distribute it throughout your body. As well as being wise from a headache, this practice helps to balance the energy balance in the body, relieving it of tension. In this case, it is enough to imagine how painful streams exit through the top of the head into space or through the lower extremities into the ground.
Previously, we examined techniques to get rid of negative sensations in the head area. Many will be interested to know that it is possible to simultaneously remove two or more different ailments.
Mudra from a runny nose and headache
As you know, all organs are interconnected. The presence of one disease implies others. If a cold has occurred, then often it is accompanied by a runny nose, which, with improper or non-intensive treatment, can develop into sinusitis.
Headaches with this diagnosis are a fairly common complaint in the patient's history. In this case, one will not be wise from a headache. The photo eloquently shows that getting rid of several ailments can be combined by one practice called “Dragon Head”.
Before starting the sinus, rinse with a weak salted solution of boiled water, then grease with menthol cream or oil. Sit with your face facing west. Relax your shoulders and raise your arms parallel to the “third eye,” that is, at the bridge of the nose.
In this position, close the pads of the fingers of both hands. In the middle of the right palm, point the index finger with the left. It must be placed between the second and third fingers of the left hand so that it is in contact with the phalanx of the index. The following figure should be final: the nail of the middle finger of the right palm rests comfortably at the base of the little finger of the left hand.
That, in turn, should lie on the smallest finger of the right hand. Now the "composition" can be lowered to your knees. Difficult? After several workouts, you will feel more confident.
Do not forget about the breathing technique during practice and about visualization: we release negative energy, take away healing energy and freeze for exactly 30 minutes, suppressing painful processes during sinusitis. Help yourself with affirmation: “I feel the pain disappearing from the maxillary sinuses. My head is light and clear. "
Urgent help
Readers often lament: “I suffer from hypertension, I take medications as prescribed by a doctor, but headaches recur.” What is the matter? The reasons may be different - improperly selected drugs or the body’s addiction to a particular drug. Before you get to the attending physician, as an assistant, mudra from headache and pressure "Earth" can act.
This is a simple therapeutic gesture: connect the pads of the thumb and ring fingers together, gently press them. The remaining phalanges of the fingers should be in a bent state and in contact with each other. Best if the hands are at chest level. Another option is to collect your fingers in the "zhenya" (as shown in the photo), alternating deep inhalation-exhalation.
Try to find an object of yellow shades in your field of vision and focus on it, taking on the warmth of its color. In conclusion, I want to emphasize that Buddhist methods (including mudra for relieving headaches) in no way can completely replace official medicine.
This ancient practice is a great addition to the set of necessary measures for various diseases. However, do not forget that the “finger dance” is a path not only to physical health, but also to spiritual development. Comprehend the mystery of this knowledge and be content with your life!
