TECHNIQUE:-
Lie down on your stomach, keeping your feet 10”-12” apart or more, depending upon your height. Place your elbows on the ground right under your chin while the chin rests on your hands.

To begin with stay in this position for half a minute, slowly increasing it to two minutes. Can be used for watching T.V also, but one should not stay in this position for too long.
