God Vishnu rides on the Garuda - the Eagle. Garuda is Vishnu's vehile, king of birds and enemy of snakes. This bird has an enormous wing span and tremendous strength in the wings. It flies with the wind effortlessly carried by the wind. This mudra resembles the bird Eagle.

Formation

Clasp the thumbs and place the right hand on top of the left hand like namaste. Place this mudra in the pelvic region and inhale/ exhale with long breaths for 10 times. Then place this mudra in the navel region and repeat inhalation / exalation 10 times. Then bring the hands on the sternum and repeat the exercise 10 times.
