Solar flares may cause low endurance, sharp tongues, and intolerance. This meditation develops sophistication—the ability to be kind and conscious—so you can deal with life without fear and not get caught in negativity and emotional reactivity.
The Practice
Posture: Sit straight in a cross-legged position.
Eyes: Eyes are closed.
Mudra: Bring the hands in front of you facing each other about 10 inches apart, elbows relaxed down.
Movement: Forcefully move the arms in 4 movements:
- Rotate the arms bringing the right hand just over the shoulder and dropping the left hand down to abdominal level. Keep the hands facing each other.
- Move the hands diagonally as if to clap, right over left, in front of the chest, but without letting them touch.
- Flip the hands so that the left hand ls over the right. still not touching.
- Return to the starting position.
The more force you use, the more you stimulate the pituitary gland that helps you develop sophistication to deal with life without fear.
Continue for 11 minutes. To end, inhale deeply, hold, clasp the hands in front of the heart with the fingers around the backs of the hands, palms together. Squeeze and press hard. Cannon Fire exhale. Repeat 2 more times. Relax.
