During Stage Two, continue the elevation until your legs are vertical to your body. Pause again, maintaining the full stretch.

For Stage Three, press your hands and elbows hard on the floor and raise your legs, torso, hips, back, stomach and chest. Then, using only your upper arms and elbows as a floor rest, slide your hands up the small of the back to assist in balancing the trunk. Your legs will swing past the vertical point at this stage. Now, for Stage Four, tuck your chin into your neck and give your body an extra lift to stretch the trunk and legs to a vertical position. Retain this pose for a few moments: you are now holding the Pan-physical Pose or Candle Posture, another classic of

Hatha Yoga. Now reverse the order of your movements and slowly return to the original horizontal position. Rest.
