The recommended temperature is minimum 105F degrees and about 40% humidity.

The room is kept at this temperature or more for the following:

• Keeping the body from overheating (contrary to popular misconception)
  
• Protecting the muscles to allow for deeper stretching
  
• Detoxing the body (open pores to let toxins out)
  
• Thinning the blood to clear the circulatory system
  
• Increasing heart rate for better cardiovascular workout
  
• Improving strength by putting muscle tissue in optimal state for reorganization
  
• Reorganize the lipids (fat) in the muscular structure

totally agree, the more you practise,downward dog will become a resting posture, in power yoga classes, we hold down dog for one to two min at a time to rest. eventually, you will get stroner, you feel like you are tearing up the mat with your hands and feet in down dog. the weight in your hands will shift to your shoulders and your back. it is hard to describle. the beauty of yoga is the process not the destination. there is any destination, you will only deepen your practice, there is no perfect posture for any posts.
