Gym is heavy and helps in weight loss... While yoga is quite simple, light and easy.... So does it really helps in weight loss? Which one is better?

Ans: Namaste!
According to me, a combination of the two does wonders. 4 days of yoga abhyas and 2 days of strength training in a gym. Both of which must be done under supervision. One day simply let the body rest. But weight loss can be facilitated only if the diet you take is wholesome.

Yoga in weight loss if yes than which yoga aasan

Ans: Namaste!
I always say this, please don’t focus on weight loss until you are seriously over weight. Focus instead on building flexibility, strength & stamina. Practicing Sun salutations or Surya Namaskars will help tremendously if you are planning to only focus on weight loss. Also Practicing the flow of vinyasa under a qualified teacher will help tremendously.

Can yoga help you lose weight easily?

Ans: Yoga can be a wonderful ally in your weight loss journey. While it may not lead to rapid weight loss, it can promote gradual weight reduction over time. Yoga creates lasting change by healing internal systems—addressing stress, hormonal imbalances, and emotional eating.

The beauty of yoga is its accessibility; the poses are gentle and adaptable for everyone. With regular practice, you’ll improve flexibility and strength, fostering a deeper connection to your body and encouraging healthier choices for permanent weight reduction.

So, while yoga may not offer instant results, it provides a sustainable path to lasting weight loss.

Mai ek 46 year seperated without divorce male hu Well educated well mannered high income slab, Mujhe ek partner ki tailash hai jo mere sath wife ki tarah rahe aur khub life ka enjoy kare Mujhe aisy lady kaha search karni chahiye Kyoki mere paas time na ke barabar hai search karne ka

Ans: Mature aur exclusive dating platforms jaise Shaadi.com, Jeevansathi, Elite Singles aur Bumble par aap apni specific preferences ke saath profile bana sakte hain. Yahaan par aapko waise log mil sakte hain jo commitment ya companionship dhoondh rahe hain.

Agar aap serious relationship dhoondh rahe hain toh close friends aur family ke through bhi koi reliable introduction mil sakta hai. Networking events, social gatherings aur exclusive clubs bhi ek acha option ho sakte hain jahan aap educated aur well-mannered logon se mil sakte hain. High-income professionals ke liye curated matchmaking services bhi available hain jo aapke criteria ke basis par compatible partners suggest karti hain.

Agar aap casual companionship ya open relationship dhoondh rahe hain toh aapko waise log dhoondhne honge jo aapke expectations ke saath comfortable hon. Clarity aur honesty sabse zaroori hai, jisse dono taraf koi misunderstanding na ho.

Question by nishtam - Feb 22, 2025Hindi

Career

Hello sir this is Nishat , I passed my 12th in the year 2023 with a good percentage but however I couldn’t see it for chemistry exam. So obviously I failed in that subject so I decided to again reappear for that exam and in 2024 I gave betterment exam from my state board in the subject biology and chemistry. However I scored far better in biology than last time but (Chemistry) I don’t know maybe it’s it’s because of the issues that we have with our board. I couldn’t score good marks so even I had decided to give (Chemistry) separately and so in 2024. I again set for (Chemistry) exam under nios I and I scored 80 so now the thing is that I’ll be having two mark sheet so while applying in need I cannot possibly select the code 2 because although I already have the state board certificate but the NIOS certificate is not yet out and it will be out by end of the March sir can I possibly select the code one that is appearing or will it create problems while counselling or is there any other option please help me out sir , I’m very desperate like I have prepared for neey for the last two years and I don’t want to put my hard work into vain. Please Sir help me out

Ans: Hello Nishtam
Please select code 1 without any fear. Focus more on your study. But considering your fear and anxiety with the chemistry subject, it is recommended that you choose other options than NEET. This time you appear without any fear.
