1. Forearm Movement

Posture & Mudra: Sit in Easy Pose (Sukhasana) with a straight spine. Touch the mound just beneath the pinky finger with your thumb. Fold the ring finger and pinky finger over the thumb, holding it in place. Keep your index finger and middle finger extended. Hold your hands with forearms parallel to the ground, palms facing down, and the fingertips pointing towards each other at your Heart Center.

Movement & Breath: Make an “O” shape with your mouth. Inhale deeply through your mouth and exhale forcefully through your nose, wrinkling your nose slightly with the force of the exhale. As you exhale, simultaneously move your forearms and hands outwards, so your fingertips point straight out in front. Inhale through your mouth as your hands return to the starting position.

Eyes/Drishti: Focus on the Tip of the Nose (Lotus Point).

Duration: Continue for 3 minutes.

Ending: Repeat this sequence two more times before relaxing.

Inhale deeply, and hold your breath for 10 seconds while clenching your back teeth, or molars, and tensing all your muscles.

Exhale forcefully through your mouth with a Cannon Fire.

2. Wrist Circles.

Posture & Mudra: Sit in Easy Pose (Sukhasana) with a straight spine. Bend your ring finger and pinky finger and tuck them under the thumb. Keep your index and middle fingers extended. Bring your hands by your shoulders with the fingers pointing upwards and palms facing forward.

Movement & Breath: Breathe Cannon Breath. Simultaneously, rotate your hands in small outward circles as fast as you can.

Duration: Continue for 3 minutes.

Ending: Repeat this sequence two more times before relaxing.

Inhale deeply, hold your breath for 10 seconds while tensing all your muscles and pressing your lips firmly together.

Exhale forcefully with Cannon Fire.

3. Hand Twists

Posture & Mudra: Remain in Easy Pose (Sukhasana) and the same mudra as exercise 2. Extend your arms straight out to your sides with palms facing upwards and index and middle fingers pointing straight out.

Movement & Breath: Twist your hands backward from the wrists as far as you can. This will cause your elbows to face up and your chest to open. Breathe naturally as you hold this posture.

Duration: Continue for 3 minutes.

Ending: Repeat this sequence two more times before relaxing.

Inhale deeply, hold your breath for 10 seconds while clenching your back teeth, or molars, tensing all your muscles, and twisting your elbows backward with maximum effort.

Exhale forcefully with Cannon Fire.
