COBRA POSE FOR DOGS/CATS AND HUMANS:
1. Lie face down on the floor with your front paws flat, placed beneath your shoulders. The tops of your back paws should be flat on the floor.
2. Engage your abs by tilting your pelvis and drawing your belly button toward your spine. You want to engage your abs to protect your lower back.
3. Spread your front paws out and press them into the floor. Rotate your shoulders back and down away from your ears.
4. Push your upper body off the floor and straighten your front legs as much as is comfortable while keeping your hips, back legs and back paws planted on the mat. Tilt your wet nose upward and lift your chest toward the ceiling.
5. Hold for 5 full breaths then release.
