One can be seated, standing, lying down and even walking. 5. The body should be loose and relaxed and cantered. It is important not to be tense because that will hinder the flow of energy. 6. After preparing for the practicing session, there are the following ways to practice the same: 7. If you are seated, sit with your back straight, either with legs crossed or on a straight-backed chair. 8. Put your fingers together as described in each Mudra. Just exert that much pressure to feel the flow of energy. 9. Go slow with the Mudras. You should not rush into them but try a few with patience.
