Does anyone know where I can find a more in depth guide on achieving the death posture and how it should look? The psychology of ecstasy had a decent tutorial but it is still somewhat vague. Any help would be greatly apricated.
I will put it in text here:
In order to prepare the medium, sit in a comfortable position like a yoga mat, make sure that the room temperature is pleasant; make use of a light blanket as your body may get cold during relaxation and lay down on your back on the floor.
Your feet should be stretched straight and away from each other to a width larger than the width of your hips. Let your feet fall naturally towards the exterior. Your arms should be slightly away from your torso at an angle of 45 degrees, with palms oriented upwards towards the ceiling. Make sure that your spine is not heavily contracted. Tuck your chin towards the chest to elongate your nape and the part behind your neck.
As for how to operate the pose:
Close your eyes and begin a mental scanning from the crown until your toes. With each exhale, imagine that your body weight is going towards the Earth, and relax your maxillary, shoulders, fingers of your hands and face muscles.
To get in control with your breathing, you need to give up on every method of artificial controlling of your breath, let your breathing become slower, less stressed in the whole sense of the word.
To quit from the posture, slowly roll onto your right side, pause for a moment, and use your hands to gently push yourself back up to a seated position. Avoid rushing things as this can lead to energy shock.
