I am Rina Hindocha, a Yoga Practitioner and Trainer. Today, when it comes of anxiety and stress, Yoga really can be magical. I have personally experienced radical changes in my life. Yoga brought a harmonious blend of movement and stillness to my life, so much that it became the only constant in my dynamic life. I am more peaceful, present and centered now. Due to the ongoing pandemic, there is a rise in anxiety and fear among working people. There is lot of panic and stress around. As days are going by, the stress is adding up and affecting them both physically and mentally. Especially for people who are working from home or at office. They are struggling with things like stress, feeling of helplessness, low morale, worrying about uncertainty of future, changes in financial income, homeschooling of children, and an inability to visit their friends. So in this situation, it is also difficult for them to concentrate on the work. Though majority are facing the dire condition, a Yoga Session will definitely encourage everyone to de-stress. Yoga helps them to take a deep breath and calm their mind. Yoga will definitely help to stay in the present moment and will allow them to draw out the distractions that are causing to procrastinate.
