Merudanda Mudra Sequence
Merudanda mudra is set of three mudras, or yogic hand gestures, that helps to bring awareness to the breath. This mudra sequence should be practiced in a comfortable seated position, either on a chair or on the mat, in sukhasana.
Then, the thumbs move to the next position, pointing upward to the sky. This should direct the breath to the solar plexus.
The final position is when the thumbs point in the opposite direction, sending the breath to the upper chest and spine in general.
