In a relaxation session, a yoga teacher guides Mr. Sharma to relax his muscles in the usual order. Arrange the parts of the body in the order in which they are relaxed:
(A) Facial muscles
(B) Stomach and chest
(C) Feet and legs
(D) Shoulders and arms
Choose the correct answer from the options given below:
Answer & explanation
Correct answer: option 1
The correct answer is Option (1) → C, B, D, A
(C) Feet and legs — First. Relaxation starts from the lower part of the body. So the feet and legs come first.
(B) Stomach and chest — Second. From the legs, it moves upward. The stomach and chest lie just above them.
(D) Shoulders and arms — Third. The shoulders and arms come next as the relaxation keeps rising through the upper body.
(A) Facial muscles — Fourth. It ends at the facial muscles, so that the whole body is relaxed. Many students start from the face, but the order runs from bottom to top.
Note: The book gives the direction (lower body up to the face); the middle body parts follow that direction.
