Chin mudra

Chin Mudra is the combination of two words, Chit and Mudra wherein Chit is Consciousness, Mudra is a gesture.

This mudra connects us to our higher Self, helps lift dull energy, creates a more receptive state, calms the mind, and brightens the overall mood. It is often used in meditation, pranayama, and asana.

*Deference between chin and gyan mudra

Chin means consciousness, so when applying this Mudra with the palms facing up, the chest area is widening, so the practitioner might experience a sense of lightness and receptivity, which is absent in gyan Mudra.
