Weight loss should be done the right way to achieve the necessary triangular balance of body, mind and soul. Exercise is a human trait that should be exercised (pun intended) on a regular basis to keep muscles moving, blood flow steady and organs active. It also plays an active role in checking physical and mental health.
Causes of weight gain include sedentary lifestyle, diet, gut microbiome imbalance, hormonal imbalance, poor eating habits, genetic causes and stress induced. Weight gain also has many side effects and consequences: diabetes, heart disease, depression, stress, weak backs, hormonal imbalances and even chronic diseases such as impotence and infertility.
Yoga is the safest way to lose weight when practiced under supervision.
Holding yoga poses allows the practitioner to focus on breath work and improve flexibility one cycle at a time. As time passes, the body’s core endurance increases. This helps balance stress, hormones recharge, the nervous system calms down, and weight loss becomes a natural result rather than a forced agenda.

Yoga poses are inspired by all that surrounds us, natural and man-made. A boat is the vehicle that takes us from one end to the other. Whether it’s rough waters or a still lake, the role of the boat is transportation.
Similarly, boat pose stretches the muscles from the chest to the abdominal muscles, releasing tension and opening up the blocks to improve metabolism and therefore weight loss.

- Salabhasana (locust pose)
This asana works on your posture and counteracts the effects of prolonged sitting and compromised posture due to computer work. It helps relieve lower back pain, correct slouching and strengthens the back muscles, acting on the entire core, especially the muscles that support the spine.
Weight management may start with the idea of losing weight, but it begins with strengthening the body and then exercises can be taken to help transform it from the inside out. Locust pose acts on the upper back muscles, which are under a lot of stress from sitting at a desk for long periods of time, absorbing fatigue and leading to lethargy.

This is a challenge for yourself as it puts the legs in the different duties of a lunge stand, one for balance and the other for carrying the weight of the body. The hands are raised to touch the sky above and extend them beyond the body. Sometimes we are our own enemies and it’s time to fight lethargy!
