Finding your pulse

  • Put one of your hands out so you’re looking at your palm.

  • Use the first finger (your index finger) and middle finger of your other hand and place the pads of these fingers on the inside of your wrist, at the base of your thumb.

  • Press lightly and feel the pulse. If you can’t feel anything press slightly harder.

  • Once you’ve found your pulse, continue to feel it for about 30 seconds.
