1. Stand facing a wall with feet 4-5 feet apart, the right
foot parallel to the wall and 5-6 inches away from it.
2. Turn the left foot inward 30 degrees. Raise the arms to
horizontal.
3. Breathe calmly for 20-30 seconds, then descend, retaining
the straight left leg, but bending the right knee to 90 degrees, or as far down
as your muscular strength allows.
4. Place your right palm parallel to the right foot between
it and the wall, with fore- arm parallel to the right calf. Press against the
wall with your left hand, revolving the torso as much as possible.
5. Stay in the position for 10-20 seconds at first,
gradually working up to 1 minute.
6. Repeat the pose on the other side.
7. This pose may also be done with your back to the wall if
balance is a greater problem than mobility.
