Notes:
During the wagging dog asana, you don't want to be up on your tippy-toes. Relax your calves, lower your heels toward the floor.

Don't forget to do them with each leg, evenly working each side of the body.

Try to practice in a quiet setting without distractions. This enables you to focus on your body. You will be more likely to do the exercises correctly.
