Mukula Mudra

Mukula Mudra is the beak hand mudra. To practice this mudra, link all the fingers together into a beak shape and place your fingertips on a part of your body in need of healing. The placement of your fingers directs energy to the part of your body needing extra care and attention. Practice this mudra with both your left and right hands.

Mukula mudra can be especially beneficial for the following areas of the body in need of an energetic recharge: lungs, stomach, liver and gallbladder, spleen and pancreas, kidneys, bladder, and intestines. You can also visualize specific colors associated with each area of the body: white (lungs), green (liver & gallbladder), yellow (spleen & pancreas), red (heart or small intestine), and blue (kidneys & bladder).

Dirt out—power in.
— Affirmation from Gertrud Hirschi's "Mudras: Yoga in your Hands"

QOTD: "In this moment, what area in your life needs a loving jolt of healing? (physical, emotional, spiritual, etc.) What steps, ideas, plans, or even “go to methods” will you be implementing to assist in the process of healing?" (3/4/2016) I recently healed an old relationship. I'm sure many of us know how complicated female friendships can be. A few years ago I had a breakup with a long-time friend. I call it a breakup because just like a romantic relationship, I needed time to heal what was broken. I've thought of her often over the last four years of her absence in my life, but the space away allowed me to remember what was good and let the negativity go. I really disliked how I treated her, how I reacted, how I was as a friend. It made me feel horrible to be unkind. I want to be a kind person, friend, wife and daughter.

This past week I reached out to my friend and broke our four year long silence. I remember when I hung up the phone, how happy and lighter I felt, like this huge weight had been lifted. As we talked, I was reminded of our bond and why we had such a close friendship. I felt how happy she was for me and I for her. All that negativity, bad feelings, hurtful things we'd said to each other seemed to melt away. I feel so grateful to have reconnected and possibly work to repair a relationship for the future.
