Another important
Yoga posture is the dog and cat pose. The dog
and cat Yoga pose increases flexibility of
spine. Dog and cat pose, in fact, consists of
two poses, one closely following the other. To
practice the dog and cat Yoga pose you have to
begin on your hands and knees. Now put your
hands just in front of your shoulders and your
legs apart. As you start inhaling, incline the
tailbone and pelvis upwards and let the spine
curve go downward, putting the stomach low, lift
your head up. Stretch out smoothly. As you start
the exhaling part, move into the cat pose by
reversing the spinal bend, sloping the pelvis
down, pulling the spine up and drawing the chest
and stomach in. Replicate the moves several
times ensuring smooth flow from dog into cat and
cat back into dog posture.
