(2) [Continuing] from the previous movement, relax the waist and slowly twist the upper body towards the left. Take one step towards the east with the left foot. Begin to push through the right leg and brace through the sole of the front left foot, ending in a left bow stance. At the same time, move the right hand as the body turns, and then push it forward until it is in line with the tip of the nose, ending with a Yin palm. Sink the right elbow down, and draw the left palm to the outside of the left knee. Push through the crown of the head and settle down into the waist. Empty the chest and tighten the back. Face straight towards the east and look at the right palm, as in Figure 74.
