Maha Mudra

Formation

Sit and stretch the left leg. Bend the right knee so that the right heel touches the anus. While taking a long breath bend forward and hold the toe of the left leg. Try and touch the tip of the nose to the left knee and hold the breath for a few seconds. Then exhale slowly and come back to the original position. Perform the same way with the right leg. This is maha mudra.
