GYAN MUDRA KRIYA MEDITATION - Sun Potion

GYAN MUDRA KRIYA MEDITATION

This meditation is practiced to connect you to your inner wisdom, inner guidance and intuition. It awakens the divine teacher within. An essential part of this meditation is the pranayama, a breath technique used to help restore and rebuild your Ojas.

Ojas is the essential energy for the body and mind. In the practice of Ayurveda, Ojas is traditionally associated with vitality, strength and mental and emotional well-being. When we are young we are full of Ojas, but as a result of living life our Ojas can become depleted. Due to environmental factors, societal stress, daily habits and certain thought patterns we can exhaust our energetic reservoir.

This sequence of breath work is traditionally used to help revitalize you psychologically, emotionally and energetically, replenishing your life reserve — your Ojas.

Sat Nam,
