Mudras for the Liver and Gallbladder
Mudras for the Liver and Gallbladder. The Prithivi and Apan (Apaan) mudras are perfect for spring and the Wood element. Cleanse and clear and bolster creativity and growth.
Prithivi Mudra can eliminate an energy deficit in the root chakra. This finger position also intensifies the sense of smell and is good for the nails, skin, hair, and bones. It also restores your sense of equilibrium as you walk.
Apan (Apaan) Mudra supports the removal of waste materials and toxins from the body, as well as eliminating urinary problems. The Apan Mudra also stimulate the wood element, which is associated with the energy of the liver and gallbladder. It also has a balancing effect on the mind, which is controlled by the liver.
