The correct way to wear your astrological bangle makes all the difference
Yogananda astrological yoga bangles are not just an accessory. Their effectiveness depends largely on how and where you wear them. By following the traditional instructions recommended by Paramahansa Yogananda, you will maximize their benefits in your meditation practice and energetic balance.
4 key aspects when wearing your bangle
- Worn correctly: The ends should be closed, side by side.
- In direct contact with the skin: The intertwined threads make this connection possible.
- Preferably on the left arm: It is closer to the heart and the receptive side of the body.
- Without removing it (as little as possible): Avoid breaking the energetic flow and damaging the threads.
Where to wear it according to size?
| Location | Description | Recommended Size |
|---|---|---|
| Wrist | Like wearing a watch | Only Bangle (20 cm) |
| Forearm | 5-10 cm from the wrist (can slide down) | Original (25 cm) |
| Above the elbow | Where Yogananda wore it | Original or Thin Bangle (35 cm) |
| Upper arm | Near the armpit | Thin Bangle (35 cm) |

Important additional tips
- At first it may feel heavy — this is normal. You get used to it over time.
- Avoid exposing it to water (or dry it well afterwards) or chemical products to extend its life.
- If you feel discomfort, try slightly adjusting the position.
- The bangle works best the more aware you are of its presence.
