Ekādashi blues…

Today is Ekādashi. Vratā, but work continues, and today was a busier day than usual. But the 30*30 challenge continues, and so I took my last two calls on the trot, thus completing around an hour of brisk walking. Best of both worlds! On days like this, you can try the Balasana – becoming a …

Of twists and stop-gaps…

What started as a stop-gap arrangement, has now turned into a standard practice exercise routine. From the past two days, I have been taking non-essential calls over a brisk walk – it’s the best of both worlds. The body keeps working, and the mind too gets some relaxation. No stress as these are calls that …

A near miss!

Today started with me not being able to do the daily yog. Was held up the whole day in calls and meetings, so missed the evening exercising as well. In panic mode, decided to take my last two calls on a walk – and ended up walking for an hour. So, all’s well that ends …

Watch out for Day 15!

Day 2 started well, with yog, prānāyāma and meditation. I missed the evening workout though, since there was a puja to attend. No worries, will be back with a vengeance tomorrow. Well-begun is half done, say some. In some cases, some people begin well and then give up midway. Actually, I have been through many …

Day 1 starts tomorrow!

Tomorrow is Day 1 of the 10 Leaves 30*30. I have been lax the past couple of months, but tomorrow will get back into full exercise mode. Which means, yog in the morning before sunrise, and karate in the evenings, with some bodyweight exercises thrown in. While the target is 30 minutes per day, my …

Its ME time!

It’s ME time. For everyone in office. Here is a circular that I sent out today. Health is wealth – everyone knows that, but how many of us heed this advice? Some of us are “too busy” to exercise. Others start with vigor, and somewhere down the line, work and family commitments take over and …
