Common mistakes
You draw tiny circles with just the knees while the pelvis stays glued in place.
You tense the shoulders and neck off the mat instead of letting the upper body stay heavy.
You hold your breath while concentrating on the circle.
What to focus on
Let the pelvis roll with the motion so the low back gets a gentle massage against the mat.
Keep the circles slow and even, and give both directions equal time.
