Take 5 with Stoki
Why should somebody consider trying yoga at all?
Yoga is a series of poses and stretches that anyone can try out. It’s also an amazing form of self-care. Yoga is a great way to unite your body, mind, and soul, which in turn allows us to tap into pure consciousness. Yoga is a wonderful way to work out and connect with your inner self. This builds strength in both the body and the mind.
What is your favourite yoga style/ Pose?
Vinyasa yoga or flow is one I love because it encompasses various inversions such as head stands, hand stands, etc. I enjoy being upside down. This feeling allows me to let go of whatever is weighing me down.
How has yoga influenced your perspective on life, and how do you bring yogic principles into your interactions with others?
I find it easier to control stress with awareness and letting go of things mentally with love. I am able to achieve this by meditating at least three days a week. In addition to conducting yoga classes, I practice yoga at least thrice a week to maintain physical fitness. Breathwork exercises help bring awareness inward and deeper relaxation of the mind and soul. When I am connected to myself I can connect with others too. Regular meditation also helps me communicate and share feelings with others.
How do you incorporate mindfulness into your daily routine, both on and off the mat?
Whenever I wake up, before going to bed, or whenever I am walking around, I incorporate conscious breathing. I also like to set intentions for the day before I go about my daily routine and be deliberate about practicing kindness at all times.
Are there any misconceptions about yoga that you’d like to address or clarify?
Many say that yoga is hard, meant for flexible bodies, or that it is meant for women. However, anyone can get into yoga, irrespective of age or gender as it gives us all healthy well-being, good sleep, and more happiness. Do yoga, your spine will thank you later. Namaste!
