 '''Mudra''' (Sanskrit mudrā: "seal", "mark", or "gesture") is a symbolic or ritual gesture. While some mudras may involve the entire body, most are performed with the hands and fingers. A mudrā is a spiritual gesture and an energetic seal of authenticity employed in the iconography and spiritual practice of Hinduism and Buddhism.<br />
 Unfortunately, there is no serious scientific research regarding mudras, that is why we don't add them to [{{GPLAY_URL}} Prana Breath] app. But even though there are no clinical studies that prove the positive effects of mudras, there are plenty of practitioners that claim mudras do work. So you might want to give it a try!
