🐩 We're often taught to look forward in upward dog, but I usually prefer incorporating a deeper backbend while gazing over my nose and sometimes tracing my eyes further along the ceiling. This accentuates the pulling action of my chest through my arms and it helps me explore tension along my spine. Playing with simple sun salutation poses like upward facing dog can help ignite our inner teacher and transform the way we practice vinyasa yoga 😊 #upwardfacingdog #upwarddog #urdhvamukhasvanasana #yoga #sunsalutation #vinyasa #vinyasayoga #backbend #letterkennyyoga #yogaletterkenny #letterkenny #derryyoga #yogaderry #derry #yogabymadeline #londonderry #londonderryyoga #ukyoga #yogauk #yogainstructor #yogateacher #ireland #northernireland #irelandyoga #northernirelandyoga #buncrana #strabane #downings #yogateacher #northwestireland (at Derry, Northern Ireland) https://www.instagram.com/p/CEJi537B6nl/?igshid=darr85wvyezn

#Repost per credit from & the courtesy of @ktla5news' @libertechan ・・・ What's up dog? - Upward facing dog pose (Urdhva Mukha Svanasana) is one of those basic backends that offers big benefits. Physically, it stretches your chest, shoulders, and abdomen, while strengthening the muscles of the spine, arms, and shoulders. It also improves your posture since it counteracts the tendency to hunch over (um...anyone sit on a computer all day or stare down at their phone?). Plus, on a mental/emotional level, this backbend is also said to relieve mild depression and fight fatigue...who doesn't love that?! . . . . . 📸 @fishmakes #updog #upwarddog #urdhvamukhasvanasana #yoga #yogadaily #yogaeverydamnday #yogastudent #student #pose #practice #practicing #stretch #strong #strength #bend #getoutside #yogaoutside #yogafit #yogapractice #ocean #pacificocean #nuxactive @nuxactive https://www.instagram.com/p/B3lPWqHj9oc/?igshid=wl1w058ua6rb
