Yoga in Daily Life: What TV Stars Say About Inner Peace
Newzdaddy Entertainment updates
As Mangal in “Mangal Lakshmi,” Deepika Singh says, “Yoga has been a part of my life since I was a child.” Observing my mother perform it every morning as a child caused me to internalise it without even recognising it. It became a silent anchor for me over time. Even though I pursued formal training, the subtle changes it brings about mentally, physically, and emotionally remain with me. I’ve always believed, as a classical Odissi dancer, that yoga and dance have a similar rhythm and require patience and presence. Even on the sets of “Mangal Lakshmi,” I look for opportunities to re-establish myself with a quick stretch or a breath. It’s incredible how something so basic can aid in a whole reset. Yoga isn’t about performance for me. It’s about taking care of oneself every day. I hope that everyone finds a tiny way to start on this International Yoga Day. Just a little room and intention will suffice.
According to Rubina Dilaik of “Laughter Chefs Unlimited Entertainment,” yoga helps me ground myself, particularly in a world that is always changing. Just five minutes of deep breathing and introspection might be just as beneficial as an hour-long mat session. As someone who balances constant travel and photo assignments, yoga provides me with much-needed respite. I’ve set aside specific areas on the set where I can practise yoga and maintain my composure, even in the middle of the pandemonium that is Laughter Chefs’ cooking competitions. I’ve observed that my energy can be drastically changed by taking a few deliberate breaths. Yoga meets you where you are, which is its beauty. I want to urge everyone to stop viewing yoga as a chore on this International Yoga Day. Consider it a daily present to yourself. Your mind and body are deserving of that consideration.
“Yoga has always been about centring myself,” says Narayani Shastri, who plays Lalita in “Noyontara.” It has aided me in maintaining my sense of self, particularly while playing complex characters with a lot of emotional activity, like Lalita in “Noyontara.” I can turn off, think quietly, and return to my thoughts with clarity thanks to yoga. I don’t put pressure on myself while I perform yoga. Sometimes it’s just conscious breathing, and other times it’s a whole practice. However, it always provides me with a brief moment of calm, which is something we all require in the hectic world of today. The more I practise, the more I understand that mental clarity and emotional fortitude are just as important as physical flexibility. On this International Yoga Day, I would advise you to pay attention to your body, treat yourself with kindness, and make time for relaxation.
