15 Seated Meditation

Roll up to a cross-legged seat, and open your arms so they are
parallel to the floor, palms facing up. Firm your triceps, then
begin to flip your palms, downward then up, creating a rhythm.
Do this for at least 2 minutes, increasing the length of this
exercise by 30-second intervals as you build strength. It should
feel challenging to keep your arms parallel to the ground;
this exercise is designed to help you mentally prepare for
labor. Once you’re finished, rest your hands on your thighs.

16 Supta baddha konasana

Reclining Bound Angle Pose

Place one block on the high setting and another one, a

few inches away from it, on the medium setting; place a bolster

over both blocks on an incline and lie back. Keep the soles of

your feet together for Supta Baddha Konasana, or extend both

legs out for a Savasana (Corpse Pose) variation. Close your eyes

and allow your body to relax completely, resting here for at least

5 minutes.
