"Yoga is Control Over Body & Mind, I Wish I Believed This Sooner"

I faced lockdown by myself, and in a new city. I am turning 30 soon, I think the pandemic accelerated an early middle age crisis!

In lockdown, I was not allowed to run, so I often sat demotivated on the couch, until my attention naturally turned to yoga out of the blue, which I never really understood. I just tried…

It was like finding a love I always kept within but never really acknowledged.

I practiced every day since April 1st, 2020, one week after we were sent to work from home and the office closed, my runs put on standby.

I saw immediate progress. I was shocked I could learn at my age.

So I turned my Instagram into a tiny platform, one of the millions, to share this. I need people to know that it really is never too late.

I am learning handstands of which I was terrified, I want to balance everywhere I am, if I am sad I do a quick 20-minute yoga flow and here I go, I reset.

People should try! When they say yoga is control over body and mind, I wish I believed this sooner!
