How to sit

Sit or stand with a long spine. Shoulders soft, jaw unclenched.

Keep in mind

If holding empty feels tight, shorten that hold to 2 seconds or skip it.

Avoid if: Pregnancy (omit both holds, breathe 4 in, 4 out instead); uncontrolled high blood pressure, heart conditions, or glaucoma — shorten or skip the holds if either feels like strain.
