Tips...
When holding your specific finger, it is best to hold the finger with all the fingers of the opposite hand wrapped around it, and with the thumb also, in a comfortable position, wrapped around also or over the tip of the finger being held... or if you are holding your finger in the opposite direction, you can rest your thumb in the palm of the hand of the finger you are holding.
As you practice this, you will see how things fall into place.
You might do a practice, as I did last night, sitting up on a pillow, in a comfortable position, while some others did the practice in a lying position, on their mats on the floor. This will work great while in bed also.
We went through the practice with each finger, holding it for a few minutes, (and I did experience pulsations in my fingers) and then moved on to the next finger.
When one hand was done, we went on to the next set of fingers on the other hand.
Hold your finger while your arms are relaxed (not raised up), rather lowered, around the peri-diem - between the tummy area and the upper pelvic region, whichever is more comfortable and feels natural.
Doing some practices while one is not under pressure of emotional pain is a good time to practice, so that when you need to step back, relax and reduce the pressure and stress during an emotional event, you are prepared.
Remember to deeply breathe in all that is light, healthy, and calming for you emotionally, and slowly breathe out, releasing all the hurtful, harmful, unhealthy feelings and emotions from within you.
I think this is another tool for our toolboxes and I want to say that I felt really good afterwards.
I hope, if you are interested, you might use a very soothing background music, something from Enigma in the Nine Worlds album, Enya, or any new-age soundtrack, or meditation tracks you play to relax and soothe your souls.
Listening to nature, waterfalls, rainy days, and walks in the woods are also great whenever trying to relax and engage ourselves in healing meditation.
All the best to each and every one of you ~
With Love
Your Friend,
