Sit in a comfortable seat, sukhasana (comfort pose), ardha padmasana (half lotus) or padmasana (lotus), spine erect, head in line with the spine. (Of course this mudra can be practiced in other positions) Place the palms of the hands together, elbows to the sides, thumbs at the heart center. Hands line up in a prayer position. This hand gesture symbolizes the oneness; the bringing together of duality and fragmentation. This oneness is recognized within (body, mind and spirit) and without (the connection to all living things). This mudra also brings focus to the heart center, Anahata chakra (heart chakra) and the seat of emotion, love, and compassion and turns the mind to this.
Physical benefits: The palms of the hands, like the soles of the feet, have numerous points of energy corresponding lines of energy like the meridian system in oriental medicine. Prayer mudra or Namaste mudra neutralizes the positive (right /male) and negative (left/female) sides of the body. It neutralizes or balances the nadis including Ida, Pingla, and Shushumna nadi. It helps to maintain the balance between Yin and Yang energies, helps to tone up the whole body, increase concentration level, release stress, it can help to reduce or eliminate depression and promote better sleeping patterns. Focusing on the body and clearing the mind can help develop a greater sense of self and increase concentration and mental alertness.
Spiritual benefits: It is said that this mudra meditation will bring the knowledge of all the past, present and future teachers to you.
Namaste.
