It is believed that as per the Vedas, hands are the most precious organs of action and that every finger is an extension of the five elements - through the thumb comes space, with the forefinger comes the air, the middle finger is fire, the ring finger signifies water and the little finger represents Earth. According to Ayurveda, the nerve endings of the fingertips are believed to boost digestion. In fact, you become more aware of the textures, taste and aromas as you eat using your hands and engaging the fingertips. #ekomkaryoga #eatingwithhands #yoga #elementsofnature #fivelements #indianculture #indiantradition https://www.instagram.com/p/BxhSehvngmG/?igshid=amwd6lutcv29
