Mudras An important aspect of yoga is the subtle, but key practice of hand, body and eye postures, to invoke certain flows of energy and create certain states of consciousness, called yoga mudras.  What exactly are Yoga Mudras? Mudras are hand, body or eye positions that facilitate certain energy flows in the body and by forming these mudras you can induce certain states of mind and consciousness.  Many of the meditation and yoga techniques on this website utilize mudras and mudras are a key part of yogic technology. Hand mudras generally work by preventing the dissipation of prana (life-force) from the fingertips.  in order to do this, one brings the fingers together in various ways, which helps create certain subtle energy circuits.  These circuits then channel prana along particular pathways to affect the mind/body complex in specific ways. Although their effects are subtle, the changes they produce can be sensed by those with refined awareness.
