How much wrist offset between the two palms is too much?

Question for people who have been working with Janus Mudra for longer than I have. I am trying to keep the gesture precise without turning the whole thing into muscular performance.

Hand position, solar plexus posture, breath, shoulders, wrists, and the practical mechanics of the Janus Mudra.

Useful thread. I would keep the language descriptive: what happened, when it happened, what ordinary explanation might account for it, and what remains. That sequence protects the practice from becoming theatre.

I appreciate the restraint here. The more specific the notes are, the less I feel the need to inflate them.

This matches something from my own log, but not exactly. I am trying to resist the urge to merge the two experiences just because the language overlaps.

Edit: sorry, reading that back it sounds more certain than I meant it.

Small reminder: if this material makes practice feel urgent, step back. Urgency is usually not the field. It is usually the nervous system.

I would love to see people include dates, duration, whether they were alone or in circle, and what they expected beforehand. Expectation is data too.
