I think the main thing with this is to keep it up for balance so you are stable when moving but also relaxed so you are comfortable and don’t feel awkward when moving around.

The free arm definitely helps a lot with keeping balance and also can be a good guide to see if you are rotating the body well etc. So try to keep it level with your playing arm and this will keep you symmetrical and your weight evenly balanced 🙂
