    When the impulse to inhale returns during the Spinal Twist, do so, and at the same time very slowly unwind.

    • True

    • False

    Correct Answer
    A. True
    Explanation
    The statement is suggesting that during the Spinal Twist exercise, when the impulse to inhale returns, one should slowly unwind at the same time. This implies that the Spinal Twist involves a twisting motion that may cause the breath to pause or stop momentarily, and when the body feels the need to inhale again, it is important to slowly release the twist. Therefore, the statement is true as it provides a logical and safe approach to performing the Spinal Twist exercise.

    Correct Answer
    A. Adrenal
    Explanation
    Ardha-Matsendrasana, also known as the Half Lord of the Fishes pose, primarily affects the adrenal glands. This pose involves twisting the spine, which stimulates and massages the adrenal glands located above each kidney. By doing so, it increases blood flow to these glands, providing them with a richer supply of nutrients and enhancing their function. The adrenal glands play a crucial role in regulating stress response, metabolism, and hormone production.

    Vakrasana is a yoga pose that involves twisting the spine. It is not recommended to perform this pose multiple times a day as it can strain the spine and muscles. Overdoing the pose can lead to discomfort and potential injuries. Therefore, the statement that Vakrasana can be performed up to eight times a day is false.
