Here's a simple hand exercise that takes just five minutes:
While concentrating on whatever emotion or ailment in need of attention,
hold the finger with the opposite hand wrapping all the fingers and thumb
around the particular finger being worked on. Inhale and exhale deeply.
Hold each finger for approximately one to two minutes, and within a short
time, a pulsating sensation will be felt. This is perfectly natural.
When working on the palm of the hand for mental calmness, press down with
your 3 middle fingers with opposite hand, hold for one to two minutes. When
pressed, the palm of the hand can offer a full body nourishment
Inhale, breathing in calm and peaceful thoughts and feelings and then
exhale letting go of any emotional attachment or physical discomfort that you
wish to clear. While letting go of the emotional or physical tension, imagine
the energy draining out of the fingers and into the earth.
While letting go of the emotional or physical tension, imagine the energy
draining out of the fingers and into the earth.
As energy channels run through the fingers and correlate with specific
emotions or organs, the energy will begin to disperse as the exercise is
practiced.
For a full body balance and harmonization repeat the exercise on every
finger and hold the pressure for a little longer.
