For many centuries, people practicing wellness techniques have used simple hand positions called “mudras.” These “mudras” are like quiet gestures for your hands and are thought to help with feeling calm, focusing your mind, and finding a good balance within yourself. You will often see these “subtle finger positions” used during yoga and meditation. It is believed that doing these regularly can help your feelings and your body feel better over time.
One of these “mudras” involves stretching out your ring finger and then “gently pressing it with your thumb.” This action, along with many others, is part of an old system of practices, especially in traditions like Ayurveda and yoga philosophy. While there haven’t been a lot of big scientific studies specifically on “mudras,” many people who practice them say they feel more peaceful, can focus better, and are more aware in the present moment when they do them regularly.
