Hakini Mudra for Brain-Body Balance, Problem-Solving & Focus

September 7, 2018 by Julie Lusk

The Hakini Mudra for brain-body balance, problem-solving and focus is one of my favorite hand mudras.  It’s very effective and easy to do.

Mudras are yoga positions, gestures, and seals for your hands and fingers that facilitate health, healing, psychological balance and spiritual transformation.  Some mudras use the whole body and breath.  They are effective, easy to learn, practical and powerful, and anyone can do them. Learn more about mudras here.

Hakini Mudra Benefits:

  • Directs the breath, awareness, and energy to the entire body to balance the bodymind physically and energetically
  • Complete and full breathing is facilitated effortlessly
  • Reduces stress
  • The first six energy centers (chakras) are stimulated and harmonized
  • Both hemispheres of the brain are integrated and invigorated
  • Boosts memory, concentration, and assists problem solving

How to do Hakini Mudra:

  • Gently touch the fingertips and thumb of one hand to the corresponding fingertips and thumb on the other  
  • Hold your palms apart as if you were holding a ball
  • Place your hands in front of your solar plexus (mid-section)
  • If your fingernails are too long to touch the fingertips together, interlace all the fingers, separate your palms, and touch the tips of the thumbs together

SoulCollage® Workshops – Zoom

Experience the Magic of SoulCollage®

Info & Registration

SoulCollage® is a fun process of making small collages from pictures and images that catch your eye. It boosts creativity, intuition, and self-discovery using a special and unique process to nurture your well-being. It’s different than typical collages, scrap-booking or vision boarding. It’s a special way to give expression to your inner voice by making collages and through conversation. Register now to find out for yourself.  

No artistic talent is needed – cutting and pasting is all that’s required. New and experienced folks are welcome.  Scroll down to pre-register.

SoulCollage easily becomes very empowering due to combining the proven process with the special supplies used. A personal deck of cards are made one at a time to weave parts of yourself into wholeness.  You’ll learn to consult your cards using a simple, yet elegant, process for gaining insights, answering questions, and getting more meaning from life.

5″x8” mat boards and special see-through sleeves are used.  To spark your creative imagination and intuition, it’s customary to use pictures with no words on them. Precut images are supplied from a variety of sources. Your own photographs and images can be added. Participants typically make from 1 to 6 cards during a session.

  • You use your own supplies for Zoom workshops. ♥ BUY supplies here if needed.
  • All materials are supplied during in-person workshops – even snacks.

Comments from Participants

“I like the sense of community, the creativity, using my intuition, looking at images and finding beauty and meaning.”

“I like how it helps me see life through a different lens, a different perspective.”

“I love the soul-searching, self discovery, and connecting with others.”


Julie Lusk is a trained SoulCollage facilitator since 2015. She loves sharing it with others.
