he Padma or Lotus Mudra is a wonderful symbol to represent that all intentions and creation, often come from a tiny seed, that is planted in the dark and knows its way to the light.
This is a lovely simple mudra sequence that helps us , set an intention (or Sankulpa) , connecting it to your highest truth, offering it to the universe/highest consciousness and then surrendering it to Mother Earth.
This "humming" technique is designed to help tone, soothe and strengthen the vagus nerve, that runs from your brain, through your heart and to your stomach.
The humming sound and vibration stimulates the parasympathetic nervous system, our ability to rest, digest and feel calm. It's a simple but powerful daily practice to switch off our "fight and flight" response and activate our body's natural ability to feel good and heal.
