Downward Dog

1 - Start on your hands and knees in a tabletop position.
2 - Place your hands slightly in front of your shoulders and spread your fingers wide for stability.
3 - Tuck your toes under and lift your hips toward the ceiling.
4 - Straighten your arms and legs, forming an inverted V shape with your body.
5 - Keep your back straight, and your head in line with your arms, creating a long line from your hands to your hips.
6 - Press your heels down toward the floor to stretch your calves and hamstrings.
7 - Engage your core muscles to support the position.
8 - Breathe deeply and hold the pose for 15-30 seconds, or longer if comfortable.
