Guest guest Posted October 21, 2005 Report Share Posted October 21, 2005 Dear _______, You have requested me to give more information on Pranayama and Mudra's. Mudra's are finger postures that are VERY effective and take minimal effort. Just try them and see, that's all I can venture to say. A good site that illustrates the fingure postures; http://www.lifepositive.com/Spirit/traditional-paths/rituals/mudra.asp Please go down the page to get the illustrations. On pranayama the following is a very good site that I found. It is fairly detailed. Yes, you can safely practice pranayama if you can watch a video provided you don't overstress the retention of breath. Do it leisurely, in a relaxed manner, and never hurry. If you live in the UK or USA can watch the Astha (International) Channel for Swami Ramdevji's classes. http://www.holistic-online.com/Yoga/hol_yoga_breath_home.htm This site will also give you a lot of information on various alternate therapies. Try not to combine them or self treat yourself. Choose the one that is available to you, suits you and your budget and have a little patience. I do not know anything about Tai Chi or any other breathing exercises. Maybe somebody else on the ayurveda list may guide. As far as Reiki is concerned you need to be initiated by a Reiki Master to be able to treat yourself, reading will not do. The Yoga Nidra cassette I use is one by Times Music available in India. You can check up with your music store to get a suitable one. A CD would be better as you don't have to change the cassettes. Use a head phone for best results. Regards, Jagannath.
