From Burnout To Bliss

Transform your life with well-being practices and discipline

When the many facets of physical, mental, emotional, and spiritual health are in top shape, there is holistic well-being. Our physical health makes sure we stay active. This has a direct effect on our productivity and agility. Both meditation and pranayama improve our life energy. This affects our ability to concentrate and focus and promotes mental clarity. Our entire being is cared for by the age-old, holy science of yoga. With constant high energy levels, we have the ability to radiate happiness and can easily handle any difficulties.

Asanas – Physical Well-being

Start with Sukshma Vyayam or subtle exercises. These involves warming up the joints by rotating the neck, arms, wrists, hips, and ankles. Walk around briskly for a few minutes while stretching and moving your muscles. This will protect you from practice-related injuries and get your body ready for a practise. These basic asanas are suitable for holding for up to a minute each.
