Publisher's Synopsis
Mudras have been in use in the East for thousands of years, invented in early Vedic Hindu culture and then particularly in Buddhism. Buddha statues often have the hands in certain hand positions. They have been used as a spiritual practice (and still are), as a way on the path to enlightenment. They're also used to cure physical ailments. Sounds too good to be true!! But believe me, it is! Do the Mudras while sitting, lying down, standing, or walking. They can be done at any time and place while stuck in traffic, at the office, watching TV, or whenever you have to twiddle your thumbs waiting for something. These hand postures - #ease asthma, #relieve flu symptoms, #let you think more effectively, #relieve tension, #even induce bowel movement.
