Vajrasana

Sequence:
1. Sit in Vajrasana.
2. The posterior should rest between the inner edges of the heels.
3. Keep thighs and knees together and soles upturned.
4. Inhaling, raise the arms over the head and keep them stiff and straight.
5. Palms should be turned outwards.
6. Keeping the inside of the upper arms touching the ears and holding your breath, lean backward as far as possible.
7. Exhaling and keeping the inside of the upper arms touching the ears, bend your pelvis and the whole trunk slowly forward from your posterior bones without raising your seat from the floor. While doing so, bring your head and arms down till the palms rest on the floor.
8. Slide the hands forward along the floor to the maximum extent and rest your forehead on the floor in front of your knees.
9. Keep the palms together and thighs pressing the abdomen.
10. Hold out your breath and maintain this position for about five seconds or as long as comfortable.
11. Inhaling, return slowly to the starting position in the reverse order, keeping the inside of the upper arms touching the ears and without raising your seat.
