Yes, I do yoga everyday. Try for a week and see for yourself the change it makes in you both mentally and physically. If you’re confused, then you can start with a few sets of surya namaskar, breathing exercises and om ucchaaran.

A happy soul resides in a healthy body and yoga helps us achieve both. A very happy International Yoga Day to all of you. #InternationalYogaDay
