"Reclining bound angle, so for the next exercise you are going to need three blankets, you can fold the blankets up a couple of times and you can experiment to see which height the blankets is most be comfortable for you. When you come to see one of the blankets on either side of your body so the blanket is up in your hips. Then we are going to put a blanket onto the floor behind us. Blankets are not going to be under our hips, our hips are going to be on the floor and we are slowly you are going to roll down so our chest is opening, our heart is opening and then we are just going to bring our soles of our feet together and bring our arms out to the side, palms facing up. Make sure that your legs are supported. We don’t want to have legs hanging in space, we want a little support under them, so the inner thighs and inner groin muscles can relax under these. Again I encourage to stay in this pose for 5-10 minutes and if you like you can bring your hands to your belly to make sure you are breathing softly using the diaphragm, keeping the heart and the upper chest relaxed, keeping the heart and the upper chest opening. When you are ready to come out of the pose bring your hands on the the outside of your legs, drawing your knees in towards one another, push your elbows into the floor, then go ahead and come back up to seat it."
