Mudras Chriselda Barretto

Hi, I am Chriselda; a writer, poet, speaker and an art-lover. I have always loved art...in all of its forms but painting/sketching is the one that resonates with me the most. Studies are now proving that colouring has the ability to relax the fear center of your brain; the amygdala. It induces the same state as meditating by reducing the thoughts of a restless mind. This generates mindfulness and quietness, which allows your mind to get some rest and calm down after a long and stressful day at work. Mudras are sacred hand gestures or positions that are used to evoke a state of mind. These symbolic gestures are often practiced with the hands and fingers. They facilitate the flow of energy in the body and enhance the spiritual journey within one's being. When used during meditation they help enhance and channel your body's energy flow. Merging 3 important elements; Chakras, Mudras and relaxation through colouring, my aim with this book is to help initiate you into understanding mudras and their strengths. This will aid you towards better health and spirituality. Explore some of the many mudras, each accompanied with its name and its facilitation towards empowerment. Practice them to feel invigorated...with one purpose of healing "YOU" - mind, body and soul! I wish you many enjoyable, engaging hours of colouring my books - Abstracts, Fashion Statements, Sceneries, Christmassy, Mudras, while I gladly work on some more. Join me in spreading some positive, happy and peaceful vibes but most importantly "Have fun!"
