Yoga for Humanity #Podcast #InternationalYogaDay

By Dr.Amrita Basu(MBBS,MS) on June 22, 2022 0

World Yoga Day and yoga for health is a multi-billion dollar industry. Yoga creative creators worldwide, write books, create videos, and share the word about how good yoga makes them feel.

There are multiple celebrities with Yoga as the hub of their lifestyle and fitness business model. The free WHO-supported mYoga app helps you start Yoga in the privacy of your room anywhere in the world.

Did the Indian Government just start the 21st century’s favorite community wellbeing movement? That’s a good way to start anytime. Doing stuff alone is rarely fun. Doing it with friends and like-minded companies is fun but requires coordination. Working on coordination is like trying to tango when you have two left feet. It doesn’t work well. But try we must
My daughter loves yoga. She now teaches me all that she learns at school. A few days back I told her I wanted to start learning traditional dances again but not give exams or performances. Too much time management will be required. My daughter said mom I will teach you. You can do it when you want and I won’t take exams or ask you to perform! A yay for daughters. That’s what it’s about now. Growing up learning, keep on learning. So welcoming you to the Healthwealthbridge podcast once again.

Yoga for Humanity is the theme for 2022 and while the world celebrated on June 21st, I am late sharing this. But when it’s for a good cause better late than never. I am also trying to find a balance between creating, creating mindfully, and creating consistently. Sometimes I am painting, and writing but not sharing, it’s not going on my blog and it’s almost like researching into my own mind.

…a woman must have money and a room of her own if she is to write fiction.
Virginia Woolf A Room of One’s Own

To do anything creative, not just write a woman must have money or make money doing it. That’s my take on this.

11 Reasons Yoga is for you too read the post.

Get the WHO mYoga app on Google play. Read the disclaimer. Always consult your physician before starting a new activity.

You can try the ten,30, or 45 minutes of yoga using video or audio guides. Avoid starting Yoga if you have any medical condition that requires chronic treatment, you are pregnant, or have any musculoskeletal, cardiac, or neurological injuries.

Give the podcast a listen and don’t forget to share.

11 Reasons Yoga is for You Too! #InternationalYogaDay

It’s my life, and I want to feel alive while I am alive
Bon Jovi

Bonjovi is right. You and I both need to FEEL alive while alive. The COVID 19 situation has driven home this point loud and clear. That’s why today, on this International yoga day, I wanted to talk about my yoga journey.
If you are stiff, inside and out, you won’t feel alive but frozen. You need to open yourself up to new experiences mentally and physically to truly be alive.

We used to do yoga in school. Then my mom enrolled me in the Swami Santdas Institute of Culture Yogic College, Institute of Yoga, and I practiced there off and on for two years. Then gymming was way more popular, and it was more suitable for the lifestyle. Swimming and the gym were my go-to exercise places in my teens and twenties. Just before I became a mom, I invested in a treadmill.
Yoga was left behind in a rush.

11 Reasons You Should Embrace Yoga Why yoga works

In the pandemic, my daughter and my sister, and my hubby both helped me again get back on the yoga wagon.

You can do it anywhere with a floor.
You can start at any age.
It costs nothing to start. There are wonderful apps and youtube videos giving great inspiration. It’s a billion-dollar industry. I will be sharing what I love as I populate this category on my blog.
There’s a yoga pose for every level of fitness.
The trick is in breathing in and out the right way.
Starting slow is important. Don’t push your body to go into strange positions if you are not comfortable.
Yoga has various nuances. The most misunderstood observation is 0robavly that it’s merely another way to lose weight. It’s simply more than that.
It’s a way to find an inner balance. It’s a way to connect the inner and outer world.
A way to bond with family and friends. You support each other and take the step forward for a healthy life together.
The cyclical use of the muscles and movements helps improve the flexibility of joints, ligaments, and muscles. Stretching is vital as we age.
You realize that the path to good health starts with you.

11 Favorite Yoga poses anyone can do.

Coping with Obesity….Battle With the Bulge

By Richa Mina on December 21, 2017 6

Coping with obesity

Obesity nowadays, gets a lot of attention due to the many resultant , medical issues .Rarely do we think about the mental status and emotional upheaval an overweight person goes through in their struggle with yo- yoing weight.

Like many other super busy females , my diet and lifestyle was a total mess.I was actually one of those who are on the verge to topple over to the wrong side…I was Obese(that’s actually an impolite word for fat).

coping with obesity — Richa before the battle

The self delusions

I’m plump not fat ! But that’s a version I had created to make myself temporarily happy 😉 .But the constant inner struggle with the weight issue was taking over my life.

2 years back I decided enough was enough! It was time to put my foot firmly down and “Battle the Bulge”

Slow And Steady..

So as a new perspective to the topic I’d like to emphasize that “slow and steady does win the race” . No one changes drastically (except film stars, and they get paid for that) so just keep steady and continue your journey from being PLUMP to “oh wow”.

You’ll find loads of sites telling you how to loose weight, easy way hard way. 5 minute workout,15 minute workout but please don’t fall for capsules, powders, fad diets. They are harmful and they almost never helps in loosing weight but are definitely good way to lose money.

I’m sorry to tell you this but there’s only one way to succeed and it’s always the long way.What works for one may not for another.That is the crux of the problem, and also the solution.

Solutions

I needed diet and exercise personalised to suite my lifestyle, body type and emotional makeup.Anything drastic often worked only in the short time.

Well, I tried yoga, but sitting on mat and meditating was not my style .Though “suryanamaskar” 10-20 times/day helped my sister. It took her just 3 months for noticeable loss in inches.

Through my series of blog posts I will take you along with me on my “battle with the bulge”! Personally I took on walking but the progress was depressingly slow.I nearly gave up on it , when one fine day my friend commented that I was toning up! That made my day.

To cut it short, I’m not here to tell you how to loose weight as you can find many healthy recipes, exercises, and yoga on the Internet. I’ll tell you how to cope with all this, when you are still plump.

I am going to be your girlfriend who will be your weight loss BFF. I will hold your hand when you lack motivation.High five you when you achieve your goals and be with you in your journey every step of the way.

Quick tips to help you along:

Wear clothes that are of your size .Loose c, ill-fitting clothes make you look fatter and unfashionable.
First of all “Don’t give up”….. ever .Continue the efforts because it really shows.
Use jazzy accessories as a focal point to drag attention away from waist .Necklaces preferably longer ones, dangling earrings & lots of bangles. Do flaunt them outrageously.
Broader and wider neckline, cowl neck, deep V necked,and deep back they all helps. High necks are big NO NO…
A good hairstyle helps; please don’t hold on to old hairstyle ,if it’s not doing anything for you.Nothing can make you more noticeable than a drastic change” so go ahead get a highlight, or shorter hairstyle, straightening anything that suits you.
Always carry a big bag. Your bag should be proportionate to your body; a smaller and snug bag will make you look bulkier.
If you are confident then short clothes like snug skirts or shorts just till or above the knee will make you slimmer and taller.
Be confident and carry yourself with grace.You are unique and gorgeous in your own unique way.Confident style improves your stature and outlook of people towards you.
Most important tip of all click cute pictures.

Here are few tips: always find someone bulkier than you to click picture with.

Hide behind something or anything? Hold your baby in front or a cushion & even your bag it’ll do the trick.

Take picture from above so that the lower half of body’s out of focus…. Believe me nothing’s more encouraging than 50 likes on Facebook.

Coping with obesity .tips tricks — fighting the battle ….and winning

Though these ideas will not to help you lose weight, but they’ll help you ,while you are loosing few pounds and encourage you to do more…. Keep it up.

Get Gorgeous and stay gorgeous….
