Start with feet slightly apart and arms bent at the elbow and finger tips touching the top of each shoulder. The arms are in the same plane as the body. On the in-breath stretch both arms so that the arms are fully outstretched, palms upward. On the out-breath return the arms again to the start position. Mindful Movement 4 Start with the arms and eyes facing forward. Palms should be together at waist level in front of the body. On the first in-breath lift the arms (keeping them straight) the hands stay together at eye level, keeping the movement continuous take the arms up and out over the shoulders (hands are now separated) and on the first out-breath bring them down behind the body (thus making a big circle with each hand). With the second inbreath reverse the movement bringing the hands above the head and then on the second out breath bring hands down to the start position. 115
