Les cours hebdomadaires du Yoga de l'Energie
Energy Yoga and Mudras
Saturday 18th November 2023
2 p.m. - 6 p.m.
In Hinduism, Jainism and Buddhism, the word mudra [from Sanskrit mudrā = "seal"] indicates a symbolic or ritual gesture or pose. Some mudras involve the whole body, but many are performed just with the hands and fingers.
In traditions from every continent, mudras can be found that act on a person's 3 bodies: the gross or physical body, the mental body and the subtle or energetic body, whether to relax or stimulate them. Adapted to modern life, mudras are accessible to everyone and easy to perform. They are effective and can be integrated into a daily routine to bring calm and promote mental clarity, to give energy or to relax, to unwind and to connect with others. The benefits of mudras are further enhanced when incorporated into contemplative activities such as meditation or yoga.
In this workshop, we will follow the teachings of Roger Clerc, Gertrud Hirschi, Locana Sansregret and Swami Saradananda about mudras for the hands and fingers: our Energy Yoga practice will first focus on the upper limbs, i.e. the shoulders, arms, hands and fingers. By giving space to sensations and conscious gestures,we will practise exercises and mudras for the health of the hands. There will be an opportunity to (re-)discover the mudras of Energy Yoga, as well as several mudras used in other yogas.
