What breathing cue is given during Camel Pose?

• A. Continue breathing here taking small sips of air.
• B. Hold your breath.
• C. Exhale fully.
• D. Inhale deeply only.

Answer: (A)

Breathing in a backbend like Camel Pose should be steady, soft, and ongoing to support safety and ease. The cue to continue breathing here, taking small sips of air, keeps oxygen moving through the body while you open the chest and lengthen the spine. Those light breaths help you stay relaxed in the neck and jaw, maintain a comfortable pace, and prevent the tendency to hold the breath or strain. Holding the breath would create unnecessary tension and can compromise balance and circulation in a deep backbend. Exhaling fully or inhaling deeply only could disrupt the smooth breathing flow you need to explore the pose safely and comfortably. A gentle, continuous breath with small sips of air is the most effective way to stay connected to the pose’s opening without overdoing it.
