class 6 Physical Education and Well-being Textbook Chapter 4 Pranayam question answer
Deep or forced breathing during Āsanas may create unnecessary tension, reducing the pose’s effectiveness and increasing the risk of discomfort or strain. Breathing naturally through the nose supports the body’s rhythm, ensures oxygen flow, and maintains relaxation. This mindful approach fosters a harmonious balance between movement and breath, enhancing the physical and mental benefits of the practice.
