This mudra is practiced for removing the excess and harmful 'wind' in the body.
It is useful for many diseases.The index finger is pressed on the base of the thumb and the thumb is pressed over the index finger.The other fingers are kept straight.

Hi Swasthi- Thank you .
DeleteAre you pressing your fingers too hard ? Be gentle but firm.Try 5 mins a day and then the time may be increased.If it still hurts you may discontinue.
