SCALE POSE
- Begin in Lotus Pose (Padmasana: legs crossed with the top of each foot resting on the opposite thigh.)
- Place your hands on the floor on either side of your hips, or on two blocks.
- Press your palms into the blocks or floor, draw your abdominal muscles in and up, and lift your legs and buttocks off of the floor.
- Hold yourself suspended for five breaths, then release by lowering yourself back to the mat.
- Change the cross of your legs and repeat for the same length of time.
