comfort

1. Start in a kneeling position try to lay your body down on the top of your legs. You may need to spread the legs a little to lay all the way down.

2. Turn your head to one side and rest your head on the floor. Your arms may take any position that is comfortable for you. The ideal position for the arms is straight to the back so your hands are resting on the floor near your feet.

OBJECT: To keep the knees together, to have the belly and chest resting on the thighs and your head on the floor very close to the knees.

HOLDING TIME: Stay in comfort for as long as it takes you to normally breath in and out 20 times.

REPEATING: Repeat 2 times, turning your head to the opposite side when you repeat.

RESTING: You do not need to rest after comfort.

NOTE: Comfort can be used at any time by itself. You should use comfort anytime you feel you are close to losing control of your emotions. (For example when you feel you are falling apart, feeling very anxious, feel like punching the wall, feeling like you can’t take it anymore, feeling like breaking down, etc...) In these situations comfort can and should be held for a longer period of time. You should hold comfort untill you are feeling calmer and more in control from 20 breaths up to 20 minutes.
