How to Perform Lapathy Mudra
Finger Curl: Curl your index and middle fingers inwards towards your palm.
Fingertip Connection: Bring the tips of your thumb, ring finger, and little finger together, touching gently.
Hand Position: Hold the mudra with both hands, palms facing upwards or inwards. A gentle pulse should be felt at the points of contact between the fingertips. This indicates proper hand positioning.
