About the Book

Mudras-also playfully called "finger power points"-are yoga positions for your hands and fingers. They can be practiced sitting, lying down, standing, or walking, at any time and place! Schooled in the traditional knowledge of this Eastern art of healing, Gertrud Hirschi, the well-known Swiss yoga teacher and author of Basic Yoga for Everybody, shows you how these easy techniques can recharge your personal energy reserves and improve your quality of living. Use these mysterious healing gestures to calm the stress, aggravations, and frustrations of everyday life.

Acknowledgments

As person can never really complete a work like this alone. In order to write this book, I relied on the contri- butions of many other people. Many people helped me in the process of gaining knowledge and perception about mudras in gen- eral; and many others helped me with my research on the effects of work- ing with mudras. There are many people I would like to thank for their help in this. Within a few months of beginning this project I "coinciden- tally" met people who were involved with the mudras either on a scientif- ic and/or practical basis. They had been successfully using mudras for years and generously offered their knowledge for my use. In addition, some of my yoga students tested the mudras and confirmed the findings. From the bottom of my heart, I would like to thank those who helped me.
