Hand gesture for invocation of energy
"Mudra" when literally translated from Sankrit is "gesture" or rather "hand gesture. Now, when it comes to "Praan/PranMudra", The Pran mudra energizes the whole of the body. This mudra helps to increase the Pran Shakti or the "Life force". It helps the body in increasing it's vitality and sustenance when deprived of food and water.
