Lie on your back with your feet and knees hip distance apart, with your arms by your side. Place your thumbs and index fingers together to form a diamond shape, and place it over your lower abdomen. Your fingers touch your pubic bone, and the base of your thumbs rest next to your belly button. Find neutral by tilting your pelvis and make sure your diamond is parallel to the floor.
