Importance of in-situ species of dogs

The downward dog pose is the most important extension pose in the forward flexion pose, which combines softness, strength and inversion, and basically forms a regular triangle with the ground, so the downward dog pose is also perfect and stable in form.

No matter what posture you are in before the transition, your energy consciousness is focused on where you are trying to stretch or keep balance. When the blood circulation is not comfortable enough, you will feel stiff or numb. At this time, when you enter the lower dog pose, your energy and blood will quickly spread to all parts of your body. With the help of the ground, there will be a good circulation, and the energy of all parts of your body will reach a balance and enter the next pose more stably.
