1. Root Chakra: The Muladhara Mudra
The root chakra is the foundation for the other chakras, with emphasis on survival and grounding.
Mantra: LAM
Bring your palms together in a prayer at your heart, then interlace the pinky and ring fingers so they fold inside of the palms. 👇🏻👇🏻

Extend the middle fingers so the tips touch and then interlace the thumbs and index fingers so they form rings around each other, with the fingertips touching.

2. Sacral Chakra: The Shakti Mudra
This feminine mudra for the sacral chakra works to harness sexuality and sensuality.
Mantra: VAM 👇🏻👇🏻

With your palms in front of your chest, press your pinky and ring fingertips together. Fold your thumbs into your palms, inside of your index and middle finger. You can then press the knuckles of these two fingers together (pictured) or keep them separate.

3. Solar Plexus Chakra: The Rudra Mudra
This mudra brings forth the power of Shiva, the Hindu god of all yogis, for the solar plexus chakra that's all about self-confidence.
Mantra: RAM
👇🏻👇🏻👇🏻

Place your palms face-up on your thighs. Touch the tips of the thumbs, index fingers, and ring fingers together, straightening through the pinky and middle fingers.

4. Heart Chakra: The Padma Mudra
This lotus-inspired mudra that calls forth new possibilities and invites in love is fitting for the heart chakra. 👇🏻👇🏻👇🏻

With your palms at your heart, touch the outer edges of both pinky fingers and thumbs together. Keep the heels of the palms pressed together as you blossom open through your hands. Extend through the tips of all 10 fingers.

5. Throat Chakra: The Granthita Mudra
You can use this mudra at your throat chakra to help clear the way for expression of your authentic self.
Mantra: HAM

👇🏻👇🏻👇🏻

Interlace your last three fingers (middle, ring, and pinky) together inside of your hands. Interlock the index fingertips and thumbs to form two rings, and hold this mudra in front of the base of your throat.

6. Third-Eye Chakra: The Mudra of the Great Head
To tap into the wisdom and power of your intuition, use this mudra to channel deep into your third-eye chakra.
Mantra: AUM

👇🏻👇🏻👇🏻

Take your right hand just in front of the space between your eyebrows and curl the ring finger into your palm. Bring the tips of the thumb, middle finger, and index finger to touch, and keep the pinky finger extended long. 👇🏻👇🏻

Place the tips of the 3 fingers that are touching to your third-eye focal point. The left hand can remain on top of the left thigh, palm face-up or in Gyan mudra.

7. Crown Chakra: The Mudra of A Thousand Petals
Holding this mudra high above your head can open the gateway to the crown chakra's domain of universal consciousness, divinity, and transcendence.
Mantra: Silence

👇🏻👇🏻👇🏻

Place the tips of your index fingers and thumbs together to touch, forming a pyramid shape. Allow the remaining fingers to extend upward, keeping them straight. Raise this mudra to about 6 to 7 inches above the crown of your head.

Perform the mudras in a comfortable seated position for one to five minutes each. If you're only focusing on one mudra at a time, extend the time frame as long as you would for your regular meditation practice.
