- Surrender position (Hands above shoulders).
- Hands clasped over the head.
- Holding something with both hands.
- Imagine holding someone’s hand while your other hand is free.
- Both hands are on chest level.
- Holding the door handle as if you were going to open the door.
- Arms crossed.
- Hands on a lower surface, simulating you are looking for something.
