I am 45 years old, can you please suggest me a good exercise for heart. Right now there is no issue with me related to heart.

Ans: The best way to strengthen any part or organ of the body is to appropriately challenge it with moderate amounts of stress and to then give it time to recover. You put stress on the muscles by lifting weights at the gym and they grow stronger when you take time to recover. Same concept would apply to the heart - you would challenge it with appropriate and moderate amounts of stress with cardio-vasuclar activity and then give it enough time to recover. Sun Salutations and Vinyasa styles of Yoga would be suitable for that. These should be supported by regular Pranayama practices like Box Breathing and mindfulness practices like meditation and Shavasana. Alternatively, you can consult a fitness trainer for other fitness activities suitable for your specific body type and needs.

Dating, Relationships Expert - Answered on Dec 04, 2025

Asked by Anonymous - Dec 02, 2025Hindi
Relationship
My married ex still texts me for comfort. Because of him, I am unable to move on. He makes me feel guilty by saying he got married out of family pressure. His dad is a cardiac patient and mom is being treated for cancer. He comforts me by saying he will get separated soon and we will get married because he only loves me. We have been in a relationship for 14 years and despite everything we tried, his parents refused to accept me, so he chose to get married to someone who understands our situation. I don't know when he will separate from his wife. She knows about us too but she comes from a traditional family. She also confirmed there is no physical intimacy between them. I trust him, but is it worth losing my youth for him? Honestly, I am worried and very confused.
Ans: Dear Anonymous,
I understand how difficult it is to let go of a relationship you have built from scratch, but is it really how you want to continue? It really seems to be going nowhere. His parents are already in bad health and he married someone else for their happiness. Does it seem like he will be able to leave her? So many people’s happiness and lives depend on this one decision. I think it’s about time you and your BF have a clear conversation about the same. If he can’t give a proper timeline, please try to understand his situation. But also make sure he understands yours and maybe rethink this equation. It really isn’t healthy. You deserve a love you can have wholly, and not just in pieces, and in the shadows.

Hope this helps
