Diet, Fitness, and Yoga

The fear of COVID-19 has taught us the value of life and health. People have now begun understanding and making health-conscious choices as part of their fitness and diet plan. Most of the time, the responsibilities of a tight working schedule may not allow us too much time for a proper workout, but there are a few things we can implement to make fitness and well-being a possibility in our lives. The best thing is to abide by those rules which are practical to follow; rather than a trending fitness regime that has just made headlines.  Just like our personality, our ability to cope with something new varies from person to person. 

Fitness as part of our daily routine

Fitness and nutrition are not styling statements but are a part of our very wellbeing, and if we make a commitment to remain fit, have a nutritious balanced diet, and be physically active each day, we will be rewarded with good health, lifelong.

Therefore, we must make it our first priority.

 Here are some very basic but potential Fitness tips that can be easily followed on a daily basis:

  • Turn sit time into fit time – All that time we spend idle with the phone or in front of the TV; why not give it to our own wellbeing? Get up, walk around the house, and do some household chores instead of using a vehicle. And feel the immediate difference.
  • Build your fitness routine graduallyA fitness schedule may not fall into place overnight. Keep a realistic goal for your workout and slowly; make it an inseparable part of your routine.
