Abstract | Yoga is a holistic practice that encompasses physical postures (asanas), breathing techniques (pranayama), and meditation to promote overall health and well-being. Among the multitude of yoga poses, forward-facing dog (upward-facing dog) and downward-facing dog stand out as fundamental postures that are often practiced together in yoga sequences. This paper aims to provide a comprehensive review of the complementary relationship between forward-facing dog and downward-facing dog poses in yoga practice, highlighting their biomechanical, physiological, and psychological benefits. Drawing upon existing research and expert insights, this paper explores how these poses offer a balanced approach to strength, flexibility, and mind-body connection, contributing to a holistic yoga practice. |
