Prana Vayu Mudra
A prana vayu mudra is one of five mudras, or yogic hand gestures, that are believed to influence the five vayus located in the body. The five vayus represent the energies of the five elements - water, earth, ether, air and fire – and the prana vayu mudras call upon those energies when practiced during meditation.
Use of the prana vayu mudras can help the yogi obtain optimum benefits from yogic practices as the movement of prana is the essence of yogic practice.
