Shawn,

While the mainsail is irrelevant, I have IMF on my R22.  I also regularly
sail and heave-to a Pearson 28 and an Hunter 34.  These are both fractional
and full rigged sloops and heaving-to works the same on all of them:  tack
across the wind to backwind the foresail, put the rudder back over all the
way and release the main sheet.  The foresail needs no adjustment, unless
it was in unbalanced use in the first place.
