Missed your AM yoga? If you catch the right train, you could get your daily dose of movement as you commute. This is exactly what senior Gujarati journalist, Ruchita Shah’s brainchild HealStation, aims to offer. “I used to travel from Borivli to Grant Road early in the morning in 2018 and my train group asked me to teach them yoga during a festival,” she says. “That is when I realised that if they can do it, so can everyone else and imagine how peaceful commuting would be. Everyone can use this time to release their stress.”

“Getting permission was difficult because Railway authorities were apprehensive because yoga is assumed to be a tedious exercise, which can’t be done in a small set up [like a train compartment]. But yoga has many techniques, and some can be done in a small space as well.”
