Hip Rotation Benefits Nourishes and opens up the hips fully Tones the muscles of the waist Focus Keep your legs strong, so that you feel steady to rotate your hips as widely as you can without upsetting your balance. Stand with your feet hip-width apart. Inhaling, circle your arms overhead, and bring your palms together. Interlock your fingers, with index fingers pointing up. Look up at your hands. With your pointed fingers, "draw" a small, imaginary circle on the ceiling in a clockwise direction. Move your hips at the same time, also in a clockwise direction. Make a slightly larger circle, with your arm and hip movements still coordinated. Make progressively larger circles until you have completed 7 circles. With each rotation, stretch and lengthen through your arms and fingers as you bend forward, sideways, and backward. Bend fully in each direction until you feel your waist and back muscles begin to work. On the last rotation, your interlocked fingers should come low to the floor as you bend forward. Pause and rest. Start "drawing" large circles, close to the ground, in a counterclockwise direction. Make progressively smaller circles as you come back to the starting position, with your arms directly above your head. Repeat the sequence in reverse, starting with small counterclockwise circles that get progressively larger, then making large clockwise circles that get progressively smaller. Drop your arms to your sides, shrug your shoulders, and relax.

Place the palm of your right hand on your right upper abdomen, at the base of your rib cage. Stage 2 Press your palm across the middle of your abdomen along your lower rib bones. Push your palm up to your breastbone, to the left about 6 inches, down your lower rib bones, and back across to the right lower rib bones.
