Shankha Mudra

Description

Place your left thumb in the center of your right four fingers and form a fist. At the same time, touch your right thumb to the tip of your left middle finger. When both hands are joined this way, it takes the shape of a conch shell. Hold this hand posture close to your chest. It is ideal to practice this three times a day for about 15 minutes each session. While in this mudra, chant ‘Omkara’ like a mantra, and then silently listen to the vibration of that primordial sound within you.

Benefits

  • This mudra is used in many holy places and religious rituals. It helps in opening the inner gateway of knowledge.
  • Regular practice with the ‘Om’ mantra makes the voice clear and resolves throat-related issues.
  • It provides peace of mind and improves the body’s digestive system.
  • By applying pressure on the nerve points in the palm, it enhances the functioning of blood pressure, kidneys, liver, and thyroid glands, making them more powerful.
