Raise your arms to 60 degrees with the palms facing up like cups. Connect the thumbs to the ring fingers with the lightest possible contact. Begin by pumping the breath out through the nose, pulling the navel back toward the spine with every exhalation. The inhalation is passive.
Activate your navel — snap it back as you exhale. Inhale, and let the belly softly respond to the natural influx of air. If you are able to do so, increase speed to 2-3 pumps per second. This is a very stimulating breath technique that will very quickly invigorate you.
Feel the sensation of heat moving all the way up the back. Place your attention in your armpits as your outer arms rotate in towards your face. Keep your upper arms in line with your ears to open up windows in your living quarters; send antennae through the crown to open up your skylights. This way, you circulate a breeze through your whole house. Connect to the pleasure of effort and heat for ≈100 rounds.
To finish, take a deep breath in, interlace your thumbs above your head, take three small breaths in, squeeze yourself from bottom to middle to top, and then exhale, pop the cork, let it go.
NOTE: If you are new to it, place one hand on the abdomen, so you can feel the belly bouncing.
