Hi, @rupal_sidh I'm intrigued by yoga but unsure if I need to embrace all its principles to reap its benefits. While I'm eager to explore the physical aspects like flexibility and strength, I'm not sure if I'm ready for the spiritual or meditative components. Can I still derive advantages from yoga if I focus solely on the physical side? And if yes, how can I eventually integrate the other elements into my practice?

Yes, you can definitely benefit from yoga by focusing solely on the physical aspects like flexibility and strength. Over time, as you become more comfortable with the practice, you can gradually explore and integrate the spiritual or meditative components at your own pace. Start by incorporating simple breathing exercises or short moments of meditation into your practice. Listen to your body and go at a pace that feels comfortable and fulfilling for you.

I'm Priya, and I often set impossibly high standards for myself. How can I cultivate more realistic expectations and find balance? @PurvanjaliTalkaboutNumbers

I think you can achieve those high standards if truly desire it !

Anonymous・13d

Recognizing the tendency to set high standards is the first step, Priya. Try these strategies to cultivate more realistic expectations and find balance: Self-Compassion: Be kind to yourself when you don't meet your own expectations. Treat yourself with the same compassion you would offer a friend in a similar situation. Set Achievable Goals: Break down larger goals into smaller, more manageable steps. Celebrate your progress along the way, even if it's incremental. Challenge Perfectionism: Accept that perfection is unattainable and that mistakes are a natural part of growth and learning. Embrace the concept of "good enough." Prioritize Self-Care: Make time for activities that recharge you physically, mentally, and emotionally. This could include exercise, hobbies, relaxation techniques, or spending time with loved ones.

Absolutely! Here are some strategies to incorporate regular physical activity into a busy schedule: Schedule it in: Treat exercise like any other appointment and block out time for it in your calendar. This helps make it a priority and reduces the likelihood of skipping it. Choose activities you enjoy: Find activities that you genuinely like doing, whether it's dancing, hiking, swimming, or cycling. Enjoying the activity makes it easier to stick with it. Break it up: If finding large chunks of time is difficult, break your workouts into shorter sessions throughout the day. Even 10-15 minutes of exercise at a time can add up.

You can start by doing small exercies or you can just move a lot in your whole day!

Good morning Ladies , you must have heard of different types of fasting including intermittent, water fasting and few more right ?? But have you heard of 10 types of fasting that is told in Ayurveda?? Fasting therapy is called as Langana chikitsa. You would be surprised to know that exposure to sun and wind , exercise are also a type of fasting. Are you curious to know more ?? Then yes please attend my live session from 11pm -1pm on your trusted platform coto.

Hi Everyone. I am Roshni. I have always wondered how these bollywood actors stay fit and active. I have dreamt of having a slim and trim body but recently I have been struggling to set realistic fitness goals and even staying motivated to achieve them. Ik the importance of setting realistic goals but always end up feeling overwhelmed or discouraged. How do you set realistic fitness goals and keep that fire burning to stay on track ? Would love to know about your journey and experiences. @Jaspreetkaur

Trust me Roshni I have seen worst where for some people even a side bend is a cramp hence 6 things always keep in mind 1 Exercise, 2 eat what you must & avoid junk 3 have attitude of gratitude for every body part & function it’s allowing you the worldly experiences 4 sleep well it’s crucial for fitness, weight loss , quality energy 5 let go of your old blocks like my genes , my mom my dad me my body all those beliefs are the blockages just let go of em & a person who moves every day in a organised way pivots from all those beliefs 6 self love , exercise & eat healthy to take care your body not to punish it 😊! For my journey this is exactly what I understood eventually since 2020 & followed ever since there days & times I can’t I know I have a life things happen & sometimes I don’t look or feel my best I mean I have 2 kids , a dad who suffered a stroke in Oct & is on bed, I restarted full time career, yes there is a social life too , so I workout 5 times a week & eat to nourishmybody

Hi Roshni, I hope you are well. Happy women's day 🌺 Firstly, let's understand that celebrities or filmstars are required to maintain their fitness, and they have multiple people around them ( fitness trainers, dietitians, cooks, etc). Moreover, not everything you see on screen and in magazines is perfect. So, to ideolize them wouldn't be a correct approach:) it's their bread and butter, and they have to be on point every single time. I would suggest that you make short term goals, 2-3kgs of weight loss/month. Write down your goals in a book, then, keep tick mark every goal you achieve daily or once a week. You don't have to force yourself to be perfect, just think positive, meditate when you feel negative, do simple home-workouts, sleep well, and maintain a balanced diet. Everything can be achieved with patience:)
