PROPER EXERCISES
👀👀
ONE SHOULD MAKE A HABIT TO DO EXERCISE DAILY. SET ASIDE TIME FOR REGULAR EXERCISE. DO MODERATE EXERCISE. NEITHER OVERDO IT NOR UNDERDO IT. EXERCISE BENEFITS MORE WHEN DONE OUTDOORS IN FRESH AIR. IF ONE CAN'T DO IT OUTDOORS IN A GARDEN OR PARK THEN ONE CAN DO IT IN BALCONY, COURTYARD OR A WELL-VENTILATED PLACE. YOGA EXERCISE DOESN'T REQUIRE ANY SPECIAL CLOTHES OR EQUIPEMENTS, JUST A BIT OF SPACE AND A STRONG MOTIVATION TO DO EXERCISES. YOGA EXERCISE NOT ONLY TONES VOLUNTARY MUSCLES LIKE HANDS, LEGS, BACK, THIGHS, HIPS, NECK, SHOULDER ETC.BUT ALSO STRENGTHEN VITAL ORGANS LIKE LUNGS, HEART, STOMACH, INTESTINE ETC. THE DAILY EXERCISE WILL INCREASE MUSCLE STRENGTH, BODY SUPPLENSS AND MOTOR REACTION. IT KEEPS THE GLANDS AND NERVOUS SYSTEM IN RADIANT HEALTH. IT IS MENTALLY AS WELL AS PHYSICALLY STIMULATING. IN THE BEGINNING ONE SHOULD DO THE EXERCISES FOR MINIMUM. SLOWLY AND GRADUALLY INCREASE IT. WHILE PRACTISING YOGA POSTURES HOLD THE POSTURE FOR MINIMUM TIME AND THEN GRADUALLY INCREASES IT TO THE MAXIMUM TIME. THE YOGIC EXERCISES AND POSTURES WILL HELP ONE TO MAINTAIN SAME POSTURE WHILE MEDITATING FOR LONGER PERIOD OF TIME.
