Cultivating a Calm Mind 30 Day Mindfulness Challenge

DAY 6 – CALM MUDRA MANTRA      

Mudra means "seal" or "closure" in Sanskrit (the original language of Hinduism and Buddhism). They are hand gestures that channel your body's energy flow.

Combing mudras with the repetition of a single word can lower blood pressure, slow the heart rate and calm brainwave activity.

Using mantras can:

• Promote relaxation and healing
• Develop confidence and self-esteem
• Override negative thoughts

Today your challenge is to notice when you are starting to

feel overwhelmed or anxious and take a pause to repeat this Mantra, combined with connecting your thumb and finger tips together in Mudras:

1. Breath in, connect your thumbs with your first
   fingers and as you exhale say – I am calm  
2. Breathe in, connect your thumbs with your middle
   fingers and as you exhale say – I am calm  
3. Breathe in, connect your thumbs with your ring fingers
   and as you exhale say – I am calm  
4. Breathe in, connect your thumbs with your pinkies
   and as you exhale say – I am calm  
5. Repeat two more times

 

How do you feel after repeating this mantra?
