You could hang a weight of some kind down through the middle of the three legs, suspended from the apex of the easel. If the weight is just a bit off the ground it has the most effect, I believe.

As for what to use as a weight: photographers use little black cloth bags filled with sand to weigh down their lighting stands. Our local professional photographers supply store, Glazers, would probably sell them and I know they have an online store too. Hand held weights for exercising would also work but be a little wierd looking perhaps.
