The exercises demand joy, expansion, extension, stretching, deep breathing, co-ordination of various parts and the specific accentuation of the movements and harmonious as well as rhythmic alternation. In general, a person can arrange from this program, shorter ones of from five minutes to thirty, according to individual needs. The principles underlying the exercises should be carefully considered. This will enable students to remember more easily and more correctly to practice the successive exercises. Moreover, in the practice of the exercises, as has been said, the aim should be always kept in mind. Thus the simplest action may be turned into the most important exercise by being practiced in accordance with principles and for a specific aim. To aid those who wish a shorter program, one that will not take over ten minutes, the following may serve as a helpful guide. 1. Combine all exercises from one to seven:--laugh, expand the chest, breathe deeply, co-ordinating the balls of the feet with the chest, and stretch. Emphasize all of these exercises. It may be wise to count say six specific, successive steps: 1, the expansion of the chest; 2, deep breathing; 3, laughter; 4, stretch; 5, gradual relaxation; 6, complete release. One should be sure that each of these elements is practiced correctly. It is wise at first to individualize them until they are normal and then such a combination becomes efficient and may be in fact advisable as a step in progress. 2. Combine exercises nine and ten:--that is, knead the stomach in combination with the pivot of the hips. 3. Exercises eleven and twelve in a similar way combine the kneading of the neck and throat with the pivotal action of the head. 4. Sixteen may be practiced in a way to unite fourteen and fifteen. 5. Eighteen and nineteen may be practiced as one. The movements, however, should be separated and may be alternated by passing from the face to the head. 6. Exercise twenty, as many others, should always be practiced individually and separately. 7. Twenty may be combined, but not so well with eleven and twelve. 8. All the sitting exercises may be omitted or combined with the standing exercises taken before the exercises on the pole. V HOW TO PRACTICE THE EXERCISES Since exercises are primarily mental it can be seen that it is not merely the movement but the mental and emotional attitude toward that movement, in short, the conditions of its practice, upon which the accomplishment of right results most depend. An exercise performed with a feeling of antagonism, gloom, or perfunctorily without thought, will not accomplish nearly as much as one practiced with sympathy and joy.
