How to Perform
1
Stand up and extend your arms straight out by the sides. The arms should be parallel to the floor and perpendicular (90-degree angle) to your torso. This will be your starting position.
2
Slowly start to make circles of about 1 foot in diameter with each outstretched arm. Breathe normally as you perform the movement.
3
Continue the circular motion of the outstretched arms for about ten seconds. Then reverse the movement, going the opposite direction.
