Question by NAresh on Mar 06, 2023Hindi

Health

What should be the sequence First Walk and the do Pranayam Or First do Pranayam and then walk

Ans: One can walk connecting to breath.
For example measure your breath capacity through counting steps for inhalation and exhalation staying within your capacity.
This way you feel so refreshed with your walk and you can slowly increase the the number of steps once you are settled.thereby stretch your distance covered with the same range of breath.
The idea is one should never get breathless at the end.

If Pranayama and walk done at different times, Pranayama invokes Parasympathetic energy whereas walking activates sympathetic system.
So it is better do a walk and Pranayama at different timing. If you want to do both in the morning give a gap of two hours between the walk foolowed by pranayama

Fitness is very essential for maintaining a healthy lifestyle.

Incorporate healthy food habits and focus on body toning to start with.

Include foods like whole grains, fruits and vegetables as a source of fibre and good protein sources like milk and milk products, eggs, legumes and lean meat.

Avoid high fat, high sugar, packaged foods, fruit juices, alcohol, etc.

Question by Harmukta - Feb 02, 2023Hindi

Health

Should i do one hour walk and half an hour yoga to loose weight

Ans: The simple answer would be do what you enjoy more and along with it start including 15 to 20 mins of Pranayama and Meditation. Because weight loss results from repetition and consistency - whichever form of movement you enjoy the most will be the most rewarding as you will be highly regular with it. I would also like to highlight that weight loss is a result of many different elements that must work hand in hand. These include a healthy and enjoyable diet, stress management and activity levels. If someone is very active but highly stressed and eating poorly they may not get the desired results. It is also much harder to eat well when we are stressed, which is why I recommend that everyone should do pranayama and meditation for the mind. For the body you can do yoga, walking or gym - it all depends on your personal preference.

I have two quessuons 1 I have a pain in my left leg knee. Doctor advised me to take calcium tablets and allowed yoga without jumps ? Can I do yoga? 2.i started yoga since last 6 days Geting cough in the night ? Is it due to yoga ? If so what is the temedy ? Regards

Ans: You can definitely practice yoga under guidance. Postures are extremely beneficial when done correctly. Without directly impacting the left knee you can work on the upper body, the core and the waist. Calcium is good to have, so definitely take it in its prescribed dosage. The morning sunlight is also very good to build bone strength. Drink warm water throughout the day. Eat plenty of drumsticks as they contain high amounts of calcium and iron that will help you heal the knee faster. Avoid preservative and fermented foods. You cannot get coughing because of Yoga, if anything Practicing yoga will only help heal the body overall. Try drinking a warm glass of milk that is infused with turmeric and ghee. It’s an age old grandmothers recipe.

Question by Vijit - Jun 28, 2023Hindi

Health

Hi This is Vijit Nair. I just need to know if I am practicing pranayam like kapalbharti and anulom vilom how much I must, kapalbharti how much and anulom vilom.

Ans: Namaste!
First off, Kapalabhati is NOT a Pranayam. It is a part of the SHATAKARMA KRIYA, that is used to cleanse the respiratory tract. Best time to practice this kriya is on an empty stomach before sunrise every morning. In winters it begins to show more benefit since it is a kriya that warms the body. The best Pranayam to practice is the Anulom-Vilom which you seem to be already Practicing. I suggest you start with about 100 strokes of Kapalabhati divided into three parts. Do not practice the 100 strokes altogether. End this with 10 Roy da of Anulom-Vilom post which you can simply sit in silence for 5 minutes. This practice should allow you to feel fit and calm throughout the day.

Career

Hello Career Gurus, I have a PGDBM which is pretty dated back to the year 2006. I find that the entire canvas has changed with the digital revolution making me somewhat out of place. Although, i managed to traverse successfully career-wise and secured management role but sometimes I face self-doubt whether I would be able ro sustain myself in this back-biting and nasty politics driven corporate world. I have jettisoned plans several times to go fof masters into enterpreneural management or data analytics. I am worried about the next step. Should I take a sabbatical considering that I have the usual middle-class constraints spelled out as obligation to family esp. ageing parents with my better-half playing stalemate on her commitment towards helping me and financial liabilities as well. What should I do ? Please suggest. Thank you !

Ans: You can always do part time courses along with your job and then scout for relevant jobs. A lot of certificate courses are available. Even top B schools do conduct short term management courses which is another option to look out for. Leaving your job is definitely not recommended. About taking sabbatical, it will depend on how will it affect your promotion in your company.
