While Ashwini mudra is generally considered safe and highly beneficial, practicing it incorrectly or excessively can lead to certain ashwini mudra side effects. Over-contraction of the pelvic floor muscles may cause tension or discomfort in the lower abdomen, pelvic region, or lower back. Some individuals may experience dizziness or restlessness if the mudra is practiced with force or without proper breathing techniques. In rare cases, excessive stimulation of energy can cause emotional fluctuations or discomfort during meditation. People with severe piles, hernia, or recent abdominal surgery should practice Ashwini mudra only under expert guidance. When performed mindfully and in moderation, Ashwini mudra offers powerful benefits with minimal risks, making it a safe and effective practice for most individuals.
