Your level of stress will decrease and you should feel an appreciated sense of self-esteem and calm. Please let go of the need to be perfect and enjoy yourself, taking care never to go beyond what feels good to you. Your body should be tilted just a bit with the spine nice and straight, lower back at ease. You might want to take a pillow or blanket and place it underneath your backside to help prop you up. Begin breathing, concentrating on each breath.
Yogic breathing is done with the mouth closed, taking air in through the nose.
As you inhale, the hairs in your nose warm the air and filter out impurities. Place your palm over your belly and concentrate as you slowly inhale and exhale repeatedly through your nose. Work to your own level. Gently bring your knees to your chest and lower first the upper body and then the lower to the floor. Position arms overhead, take a nice, big stretch.
