Place your hands on your hips, so that they are resting on the superior surface (top) of your hip bones, with your thumbs pointed towards your back. If you slide your hands towards your back, when your thumbs meet, that is approximately the level of the spinous process of the 3rd or 4th lumbar vertebrae.
