Think of mudras as self-talk for your hands. These simple movements, the gestures that we often make unconsciously, can help us focus on our work, calm ourselves, release anger and energize us. Used for centuries by many different cultures...


Editor’s Note from Brian Critchley: Many of us use mudras or hand gestures as part of yoga practice. Either we bring the index finger and thumb together into jnana mudra (index finger and thumb together) during our breathing warm-ups...

Given this massively important role in the body as energy producer and given that most of us succumb to one or more of the conditions above in our lifetime it is interesting to know that the majority of us are deficient in this mineral. Why is this so?...

And where and how do we come to find one?...
