Deep relaxation pose (Savasana)

Five to ten minutes. 

Set up for the pose by placing a folded blanket or cushion underneath your head to support your head and neck.

Lie back with your head on the support, so your chin tilts toward your chest. 

Roll your legs open and turn your palms up, with your arms a comfortable distance from your body. If you like, you can cover yourself with a blanket to keep you warm while you relax. 

Some people who are anxious may feel vulnerable and exposed in this pose, and being covered can be comforting. 

When you are comfortable, begin to observe your breath.
