Downward Dog! (Update)

Today's yoga pose is the Downward Dog! This pose has the following benefits:

Energizes the body
Stretches the shoulders, hamstrings, calves, arches, and hands

Strengthens the arms and legs

When I started doing this pose I wasn't able to keep my feet flat on the floor, but after repetition and my body strengthening it is getting a lot better! 💪💪💪
