The hand gesture in the practice of Hridaya Mudra (heart gesture) helps in balancing the Heart Chakra (Anahata Chakra) with the pressing of the thumb (fire element), the ring finger (earth element), and the middle finger (space element) together at the tips. The pressure at the finger tips detoxifies and cleanses the body because it increases the oxygen supply to the heart, which in turn improves the power and functioning of the heart.

In Hridaya Mudra (heart gesture), the index finger is curled inward, touching the root of the thumb; the other fingers (thumb, ring, and middle) are pressed against each other at the tips, while the little finger is stretched out. The Hridaya Mudra, also called the Apaan Vayu Mudra or the Mritsanjeevani Mudra, is a powerful mudra that is said to help as a first aid for heart attacks.

Asteya from the third limb of the Yamas suggests that we not steal or take more than we need. This is part of the very first steps on our yogic path. From the way we take up more space than we need in conversations and forget to listen; to what we purchase; to what we have on our plate, in our closets, and even on our calendar.

So the question I ask again and again is what am I attempting to fill up or avoid feeling or to cover up, to experience, or project into the world when I purchase things I don’t really need?
The mantra: I am enough. I am enough. I am enough.
I have enough. I have enough. I have enough.
I give enough. I give enough. I give enough.
