Hello @rupal_sidh I'm curious about how individuals can effectively blend Ayurvedic principles, like personalized dietary recommendations and lifestyle adjustments, into their yoga routines to enhance overall balance and harmony in both physical and mental well-being. Could you share some insights or practical tips on this topic?
Ayurveda and Yoga are Two sides of the same coin! You can follow the Ayurveda and yoga way of life by merging the simple principles of life. The little changes in your daily routine to the alterations in your diet. Starting your day with ghee to eating 3 hours before going to bed, practising cleansing kriyas every morning to doing a round of Pratipaksha Bhavika sadhana before going to bed…the ways are innumerable!

Hey there! How do you handle those intense cravings while you're on a weight loss journey? I'm curious about your go-to strategies for managing them without feeling deprived. Do you have any tricks for distinguishing between genuine hunger and those pesky cravings that pop up out of the blue? @rupal_sidh
First of all I try my best to resist those cravings. Secondly when it becomes unbearable I try to eat something similiar to what I am craving for. For example I am maybe craving for Ice-cream so I look for alternatives such as eating a frozen yogurt.

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.
Answer
Hello, @rupal_sidh I'm new to yoga and currently doing 30-minute sessions of asanas. I'm curious about the ideal frequency and duration for practicing yoga poses. How often should I engage in asana practice, and are 30 minutes per session sufficient, or should I consider extending the duration for greater benefits? I want to ensure I'm maximizing the benefits of my yoga practice without overexerting myself. What insights can you provide on structuring my yoga routine effectively?
For beginners, practicing yoga 3-5 times per week for 30 minutes per session is a good start. Gradually increase duration as you become more comfortable. Listen to your body and avoid overexertion.
Answer
Hii, @rupal_sidh I typically stand at 6'5" and maintain a weight of around 180 pounds. However, over the past month or two, I've noticed a considerable increase, currently weighing 210 pounds. I suspect this weight gain is contributing to my recent challenges during practice sessions. In Garbha Pidasana, I struggle to touch my ears, and in Pasasana, I find it difficult to achieve a full bind with my feet flat on the ground. Additionally, I've been experiencing a notable decrease in energy levels. I no longer execute as many jump backs and jump throughs as I used to, even in basic sequences like transitioning from Surya Namaskar to Navasana. Presently, I engage in Primary series once to twice a week, "fundamentals" up to seated forward fold two to three times a week, and intermediate up to Laghu once to twice a week. How might I replenish my energy levels and regain focus in my practice?
There could be many factors leading to this. Questions you should ask yourself, are you resting well? Do you have any deficiencies? If there’s a problem there, the rest is a repercussion of it. But it you’ve rested well and have no issues otherwise, it’s just a matter of time. As we grow older, there will be a few hiccups in your practice and how your body flows, but what’s important is to keep going. You should continue your practice mindfully and also be aware of what it is that you’re doing that might be causing the weight gain and learn the right technique for pasasana for the bind, I could show you too. For energy levels and recovery, you could also add shatavari to your diet or soups made of pumpkin, tomato, Dudhi, broccoli and drumsticks! Hope this helps!

Hello @rupal_sidh I've successfully learned how to do crow pose, and now I'm eager to progress to headstand. However, I want to ensure that I develop the necessary strength to avoid injury during the transition. Which specific areas of my body should I focus on strengthening to prepare for headstand? My ultimate goal is to smoothly transition into headstand from a wide-legged forward fold. Seek advice
To prepare for headstand, focus on strengthening your core, shoulders, and upper back. These areas will provide stability and support during the transition.

Hey, @rupal_sidh I'm considering starting yoga, but I'm unsure about the equipment I'll need for practice. Could you please advise me on whether there are any special items or equipment that I should invest in for my yoga sessions? I've never tried yoga before, so I want to make sure I have everything I need to get started comfortably and effectively. Thank you!🤗
For yoga, you'll need a yoga mat to provide cushioning and stability. Wear comfortable clothing that allows you to move freely. Optional props like blocks and straps can help with poses, but they're not necessary to start. Just focus on getting a mat and wearing comfy clothes to begin your yoga journey comfortably.

I host several podcast it's a huge passion of mine and I also produce I strongly feel that empathy is the glue of humanity and without it what do we have for understanding one another and being kind toward one another is what keeps Us human it's what makes it work and without it what can possibly get better you must hold on to that and remember and show it where it's needed so that people can know what it is and be able to show that same to others connecting and growing with others is within the foundations of empathy that's how the world gets better so we can understand we don't have to directly know one another we must be that change and it starts with us, we must be the change we want to see!more
