Nevertheless, these new converts are finding out that yoga also takes more time and energy than they often have available. But yoga's benefits now can be as close as their fingertips, with Sabrina's Mudra Cards: Yoga for the Hands.Eastern-trained but Western-based Sabrina Mesko taps her intensive formal study with world-renowned mudra masters to introduce this longstanding practice to the West. Mudras are ancient hand gestures that can be found in one form or another throughout every culture. We all use mudra-like gestures each day but without near the powerful potential they offer when properly practiced and employed.Sabrina offers simple and easily adopted instructions for a variety of mudra moves. Short daily sessions-for as little as three minutes-can bring profound improvement. Amply illustrated with easy-to-follow color photographs, the book coaches the totally inexperienced novice through moves that can enhance general health, productivity, communication skills, stress management, and balance, among many other benefits.
