The steps are :

1. Sit with legs outstretched straight in front, bend the knees.
2. Bring the right shin parallel to the front of the mat.
3. Place the left ankle directly above of the right knee, bringing the left shin parallel to the right shin.
4. Inhale and exhale while staying in this posture.
5. After a few breaths, release both legs.

If necessary, beginners may place a cushion or padding under the sitting bones for support. If the gap of the top knee to the floor is too big, position a block or blanket under the top knee.
