Bhramara Mudra For Allergy Relief-Running Nose.

Yoga Mudras were introduced in my  posts.  They are gestures for the hands and body that aid healing for the body, mind, emotions and spirit.  Using hand positions in this manner can be found in the yoga, Buddhist, Chinese, and other traditions.

Here is one to practice to relieve allergies and related conditions.  It’s called Bhramara Mudra.




How to do:
Place your index finger at the base of your thumb.
Touch the tip of your thumb beside the fingernail of the middle finger
Extend your ring and little fingers
Focus your attention and breathe as deeply, slowly and smoothly as possible
Hold for several minutes and practice often
Even though I had my doubts, this yoga mudra has helped me a lot.  I use it during an allergy attack and as a preventative during allergy season.  For example, I will hold this yoga mudra with one or both of my hands while waiting, walking or sitting.
I have shared this with others and have been told that it stopped a sneezing fit, solved an allergy attack when out walking, and cleared up a runny nose from allergies.  Really!
 Don’t forget to use common sense too.   Help yourself by doing what you can to boost your immune system and avoid what triggers your allergies (pollen, animal dander, dust, food triggers, etc.)
Please try it for yourself and then post your results!
Visit often since there are lots more yoga mudras to share with you for things like feeling more stable, calm, energized and uplifted.
