YOGA TIPS I am Abhilash Soman, my friends call me Abhi. I am a chef instructor and yoga guru, who is always concerned about the health of others and I am practicing yoga for the last 10 years. I will share important lessons In future issues of fine- dining-indian magazine. Yoga is the union of the mind, body and soul. As far as I am concerned, breathing is the prime thing. Most of the people that I have seen are breathing wrong which is the main reason for their challenges. Once you breath properly, 50 percent of your health issues will be solved. Once your breath is in your control, slowly your mind will come under your control and once the mind is in your control, then the body is in your control. That’s what happens when you practice yoga. Here I am going to tell you how I came into this beautiful science and what made me follow it to become a yoga teacher. People make resolutions every year to stay fit but at the end of the day, nothing will happen because the focus is not there and they give priority to different things.     The balance is not there and yoga can give you that balance to take care of everything, that’s my experience. The preparations mentally and physically, which I have done to get into the yoga zone, have given me a lot of benefits - I haven't visited a hospital for the last 10 years!  #FINEDININGINDIAN YOGA PAGE  13 19
