HAND
MUDRAS FOR IMPOTENCY/ED
Hand mudras to help you harness
strength, vitality, resilience and peace.
From harnessing strength, overcoming difficulty and
increasing your sense of vitality, practicing mudras can have a significant
effect on the way our body and mind.
Hasta mudras or hand-gestures speak with eloquent silence,
and are used in art, religion, culture, yoga, meditation and personal life,
consciously or unconsciously. Each finger of hand represents an element of
nature and has a subtle energy-field. The thumb is symbolic of fire, index
finger of air, middle finger of space; ring finger, of the earth, and little
finger, of water. In Tantric anatomy, the thumb is associated with the solar
plexus-chakra, index finger with heart-chakra, middle finger with throat-chakra,
ring finger with root-chakra, and little finger with sacral chakra. By bringing
the thumb in touch with one or more fingers, one can deepen one’s connection
with the elements represented by them, and invigorate prana.
“When a mudra is done with full concentration,
and a state of serenity is maintained, cerebral activity is calmed and
regenerated,”
Your hands hold an innate healing power that has been used
for centuries for healing various ailments like
- Problems with
erection
- Low libido due to
low testosterone levels
- Premature or
delayed ejaculation
- Inability to cope
up with the partner's demands due to low stamina
- Fatigue
Erectile dysfunction is
becoming increasingly common today, and if you are worried for your partner,
yoga Mudra can be a wonderful solution!

Ling
Mudra:
Linga mudra is the best mudra to
improve fire element in the body.
Ling Mudra Practice:
1. Sit in any meditative pose.
2. Now interlock both palms by
keeping the left thumb erect, pointing upwards.
Benefits of Ling Mudra:
1. It burns the extra fat in the
body that helps in weight loss.
2. This mudra increases hotness in
the body that helps to relieve cold and related ailments such as sinusitis, wet
cough and sticky stools.
3. Regular practice of 30 minutes
is enough to get desirable results. This mudra should be practiced only when
there is a need.
Ksepana Mudra: A Mudra for Letting Go
In
Sanskrit, Ksepana means to throw (away), to let go, pour off or to cast off.
Ksepana mudra is the mudra for letting go of waste known as mala
in Ayurveda. This waste, or mala, can be literal physical waste, toxic
relationships, negative thoughts, or old habits, samskaras, and vasnas that
don’t serve your highest self.
Ksepana
Mudra Practice:
To practice Ksepana mudra
interlace the fingers of both hands and then release the index fingers. The index
fingers are touching one another. The thumbs are crossed and the thumb pads
rest, more or less, in the crook between thumb and index finger. When seated
and practicing this mudra the index fingers should point down. The index
fingers should point toward your feet when practicing this mudra lying down.
You can also practice this
mudra in your asana practice. A flow that I like to do in a seated posture.
1. Begin with the mudra at heart center. Index fingers
pointing up.
2. On an inhale turn the index fingers to point down
and slightly away, extending the arms long toward the floor.
3. Using the same inhale breath sweeping the arms up
overhead.
4. Exhale index fingers come to the crown of the head, to
the forehead, the nose, then the lips and back to the heart like a waterfall
tumbling over smooth stones.
5.
Each inhale envisions
vibrant, light energy flowing into your body and on your exhale let go of
negativity in any of its forms.
6. Practice a total of seven times.
Benefits of Ksepana Mudra:
Ksepana mudra helps us release negativity, frustration
and suffering. Practicing the mudra, especially as stated above, creates a
palpable difference in our energy. I call this letting go mudra an “attitude adjustment”.
Matangi
Mudra:
Matangi Mudra is a sacred hand gesture
or 'seal,' named after the Hindu Goddess Matangi. It is used as a means of
relieving tension, improving digestive function, nourishing the circulatory and
lymphatic systems, relieving anxiety and cultivating determination.
Matangi mudra can also help to
strengthen the breathing impulse in the solar plexus, helping to restore
energetic balance in this area.
Follow these steps to practice Matangi
mudra:
1. Come to a stable meditation posture.
2. Bring your palms together at your solar plexus (navel center)
with fingers interlaced.
3. Point both middle fingers up and place them together.
4. Direct your breath to the solar plexus or belly area.
Benefits
of Matangi Mudra:
This mudra can be practiced as often as required, for
at least four minutes at a time. For maximum benefits, practice Matangi mudra
three times per day.
The physical benefits of Matangi mudra may be
attributed to its stimulation of the hypothalamus. The heart, stomach, liver,
duodenum, gallbladder, spleen, pancreas, and kidneys all benefit from this
mudra, and it particularly aids in reducing spasms or aches in the stomach.
Muladhara
Mudra:
It is believed to improve
elimination of waste, tones muscles and organs of the pelvis, heals
incontinence and hemorrhoid's, increases sexual hormone production, increases
fertility, creates stability and centeredness. Though stimulating sexual
thoughts is a part of the human anatomy, this mudra helps balance it to its
productive and required limits. It helps channel the thoughts to focus on all
areas and aspects of a person’s life with a steady practical approach.
Benefits
of Muladhara Mudra:
1. Regular practice of this
mudra helps keep the urogenital system healthy. Excretory wastes are flushed
out of the system efficiently, and the functioning of the genitals, anus, and
rectum is effective.
2. Sexual organs work
efficiently. The practice of this mudra can address male and female
reproductive issues. Ailments like erectile dysfunction, premature ejaculation,
vaginal dryness can be treated by this practice.
3. All pains, aches, and
cramps felt at the feet, legs, and sacral spine are connected to the Muladhara chakra imbalance, and this mudra stimulates the chakra.
Ashwini mudra (horse gesture):
Performed by
contracting the sphincter muscles of the anus and then relaxing them, Ashwini mudra may be integrated with yoga postures and can also be practiced anytime,
anywhere in seated or lying down position. It is believed to awaken Kundalini Shakti and useful for PE.
Ashwini mudra
is excellent for exercising muscles of the rectum, colon and perineum. It
increases the blood flow to the penile vasculature. It also works to tone up
and release the stiffness in your abdominal area and area under the navel.
Close your eyes and sit in lotus position/ padmasana. Inhale and bend your head
to fix the chin in the chin lock position. While holding your breath, contract
and relax the anal sphincter five times. Increase the speed of contraction.
Repeat.
Vajroli mudra (thunderbolt/spontaneous
psychic attitude)
This mudra is practiced by drawing the urethra upward,
the muscle action being similar to holding back an intense urge to urinate.
Vajroli mudra involves the functioning of muscles similar to Kegel exercises,
which is suggested to gain voluntary control over Pubococcygeus muscle and can
provide men with stronger erections and better ejaculatory control. It also
strengthens the pelvic floor, which may help men to attain orgasm without
ejaculation, and thus a man can achieve multiple “climaxes” during the sexual
act. According to yoga physiology, Vajroli mudra regulates the entire sexual
system, regulates testosterone level and sperm production. It gives control
over PE and helps correct impotence.
Vajroli mudra helps boost blood circulation and helps
tone the pelvic area. This is why it is recommended for men suffering from
erectile dysfunction. Sit in Padmasana or lotus position. Place your hands on
your knees, lean a little forward and close your eyes. Draw your urinary
muscles in and hold your breath for a count of 5. Release your breath and then
repeat.
