Rubbing Hands Close Up Benefits:

The rubbing of the Rubbing Hands creates heat in the palms. This movement has various benefits including both spiritual and physical. These are explained below:

Energy Flow: The palm has various acupressure points which are connected to the organs of the body. Acupressure is a body science which can be practiced by students who cannot do asanas to the road of healing. The warmth derived from Rubbing The Hands can be placed at the points that need a healing touch. With the Rubbing of the Hands, the energy generated can be a source of power and witht the healing properties can stimulate the points in the body, sending the vibrations to the rest of the body. It is said that certain points in the palms are connected to certain meridians, and by stimulating them, the channels open and get cleared. Of course it requires a good understanding of these meridians in the body, before attempting this practice.
Healing: Rubbing Hands creates heat and when kept on areas of pain, it may relieve the pain and it sends a healing signal to that area. Most of the diseases are seen to be healed when there is an intention by the patients to heal themselves. Rubbing Hands creates a psychological desire to heal the affected part due to the warmth and this is a great step to self healing.
Stress: After rubbing the palms when it is placed on the eyes, the heat soothes the stressed eyes and increases blood circulation around the eyes. This helps people who work long hours in front of the computer. After a session of yoga asanas and pranayama, there are a lot of calming energies created in the body. So, after this session when hands are rubbed and the self-created heat of the body is placed on the eyes, face and whole body, the energy is absorbed within. In this way it keeps the nervous system balanced and active.
Relaxing: Importantly yoga teachers can use this movement after rigorous vinyasa yoga sequences or an intensive asana like Handstand Pose. In these asanas if there is a strain on the palms and wrists, this movement may release it. This practice can also be part of the warm-up or cool down practices, based on the time of the day, and the need for this practice.
Others: This can be done by senior students, pregnant women and women after pregnancy as well as this does not require any physical movements apart from the hands. Therefore, it can also be done by the bedridden people and physically challenged people. Generally believed that this practice is good for the eyes, and when done along with other yoga eye exercises has more benefit. Those who spend long hours driving, or their jobs demand straining their eyes, then this practice should be taught well by yoga teachers, such that it can be used well at the right time.
Spiritual Aspects: Spiritually, this movement creates a positive energy in the mind of the practitioner during the practice. All our lives depend on the work of our hands. They can either create good karmas, make lives or destroy the self. Whether working on the desktop, or cooking food or helping anyone, our hands are the first to show our intentions to help. Good karmas can be created through such yogic practices. According to the ancient hindu vedic science, when we wake up in the morning and rub our palms, look at them in our prayer, we seek for knowledge, prosperity and the creator's protection through the day. We ask for the day to be used in productivity through the works of our hands. Then the palms are kept on the face after the prayer, so that these good thoughts may shine through us throughout the day. “Om karagre vasate Lakshmi” is a powerful morning shloka/ mantra that is chanted as soon as one wakes up. Seeing the palms one chants this prayer. It says that God resides within our hands and when you wake up in the morning, the first thing you should do is to look at your hands. The work of our hands will be instructed and blessed by the supreme power, as you surrender to the Almighty.
