Downward-facing dog

You may use this forward bend as a resting pose to balance your body. The downward-facing dog pose strengthens and aligns your back muscles while easing back pain. Practicing it regularly helps your posture to get better.


How to do it:

  • From the Table position, tuck the toes under, press into the hands and begin to lift the hips up towards the ceiling.
  • Bring your sitting bones up toward the ceiling by lifting your knees and hips.
  • Lengthen your spine and slightly bend your knees.
  • Either keep your chin completely tucked into your chest or keep your ears in line with your upper arms.
  • Maintain a stranglehold with your hands while keeping your heels up.
  • Hold this position for up to a minute.
