Kali Mudra is a sitting asana and is also known as Ksepana Mudra, which is a gesture of pouring out and letting go. Kali Mudra is an asana which is practised in Restorative Yoga Sequences for healing symptoms related to depression, anxiety and/or insomnia. It encourages the positivity of the body and mind while clearing the blockages in the Sushumna Nadi or channel, thus reducing tensions and distractions. It is one of the types of pranayama or meditation. In Kali Mudra, all the fingers except the index fingers interlock, with the palms facing each other, and while the fingers interlock, the left thumb and not vice versa. Kali is the fierce and female formed, and kali is the goddess of destruction and evil forces.
