Shanka Mudra: find a sense of safety and self-nourishment so you can allow yourself to feel to heal

It often seems easier to ignore or completely numb your feelings. But doing that for the not so great feelings means doing it for the really great ones too.

When you numb yourself to sadness, anger, or fear, you also numb yourself to joy, determination, and courage. We learned with Ida Mudra that your emotions, while often intense and sometimes not so pleasant, come to you for a reason - to guide you! And once they guide you, they need to move through you to create ease and well-being.

Shanka Mudra helps you find a sense of safe-enough so you open to the vulnerability of feeling. And it is in the feeling that you find the healing!

Shanka Mudra is a wonderful handshape to work with anytime you want to feel to heal, but especially during Cancer Season or when you want to work with any water sign energy or your sacral chakra.

Give yourself permission and reassurance to feel to heal with this mudra and these tools to support its intention!
