The elegant and powerful three-legged downward-facing dog pose is a beneficial and accessible yoga pose that is not only energizing but also calming. This posture is great for both starters and seasoned yogis alike. It works on improving balance, strength, flexibility, and core stabilization. It can also alleviate stress, improve posture, and reduce back pain. Moreover, this pose is particularly helpful for those with limited mobility or injuries, as it works your body while providing support. To practice, simply begin in a tabletop position on your hands and knees and slowly extend one leg up and back.
