Where Stress Manifests in the Body & How Yoga Can Help - Yoga Pose

2. Downward Facing Dog (Adho Mukha Svanasana)

Downward Facing Dog unlocks a lot of the stress in the lower back and legs. Often misunderstood as one of the more accessible or resting poses, Downward Facing Dog infact is a strenuous posture that tones the arms and shoulders while stretching the back of the legs. To intensify this pose, you can press into your palms more and hinge your hips back. You’ll feel a strong pull throughout the body and your mind will become a little more calm. Hold this position for as long as feels comfortable.
