Standing in a Stream

  1. From the third position lower your arms to the sides leaving the knees bent.
  2. Breathe in and slowly raise your arms to waist level, palms facing up.
  3. Continue to breathe naturally and extend each arm to either side, turning the palms face down.
  4. Imagine that each palm is resting on a big balloon.
  5. The elbows should be out as if there are two balloons under each armpit.
  6. Hold the position for 2 minutes.

This posture further builds on endurance and strength.
