Yoga weaves a tapestry of wellbeing, addressing the mind, body, and spirit, extending far beyond the benefits of physical exercise. Be it gentle stretches to promote flexibility and strength, or mindful breathing to calm the mind, the ancient practice is a path to holistic wellbeing. Yoga instructors Sneha Desai and Sabrina Merchant, masters from JetSynthesys` ThinkRight.Me, believe introducing yoga at a young age can instill lifelong habits of mindfulness and physical activity. “By starting with simple poses and gradually progressing to more challenging ones, they can develop strength, flexibility, and mindfulness. Consistency, patience, and a positive approach will help them embrace yoga as a lifelong practice, nurturing their body and mind in the process,” says Desai.

As the world celebrates International Yoga Day, let us forget about intimidating poses or limitations and celebrate its inherent inclusivity that transcends age, ability, and background. “Remember, yoga is a personal practice, and everyone may need to adapt poses to suit their unique needs and abilities,” poses Merchant. The experts share yoga asanas for children, teens, adults, and seniors, along with tips and recommendations for a consistent practice. So, unroll your mat, embrace the spirit of exploration, and get ready to experience the magic of movement, mindfulness, and inner peace.
