But tread with caution. Running is synonymous with injuries in the hip, thigh, knee, leg, ankle and foot regions. While most instructors recommend a bit of stretching before the sprint, just stretching is simply not good enough. As a runner one must learn to practice a couple of yoga postures for beginners through programs like the Sri Sri Yoga course to understand what postures can really help you push your limits. A couple of minutes spent reposing in these ancient yogic postures can help you go that extra mile when you hit the treadmill.

all about mobility
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
what is mobility & how is it different from flexibility?
mobility is the ability of the joints to move through their full range of motion, while flexibility is the ability of the muscles to temporarily stretch.
why do mobility training?
there are many different benefits of mobility training, including:
increased flexibility
reduced risk of injury
improving joint & muscle health
improving range of motion
improving posture
gaining muscle strength
balance & stability
reducing pain & stiffness in the body
when should i start?
now! there’s a common misconception that you shouldn’t need mobility training until you are in your later years and your mobility starts to decline, but mobility training is useful no matter your age. in fact, the sooner you start, the less mobility & joint problems you will experience as you age.
how often should i train mobility?
mobility training is safe and beneficial to do daily, but ideally, you should try to train mobility at least 5 times per week for at least 5-10 minutes each time.

How to do Kapalbhati- a step-by-step guide
Kapalbhati, also known as kapalbhati pranayama, is a fast breathing technique that reduces stress and enhances general wellness.
The name is derived from the Sanskrit words 'Kapal' for forehead and 'bhati' for sparkling. It is thus named because performing Kapalbhati can enhance both your physical and mental health.
This yoga technique ranges from advanced to intermediate. Your body is detoxified, extra carbon dioxide is eliminated, your core and chest are strengthened, and your nervous and circulatory systems are given energy.
It is advised not to begin with Kapalbhati if you are brand new to breathing exercises.
Learn the fundamentals of breathing before practising Kapalbhati by clicking the link below.

On Being Well Spoken
I recently received a request about posting something regarding being well spoken.
Something you need to realise is that you’re not going to become well-spoken overnight. You need to practice on people. You need to SPEAK.
I used to stutter so badly that I could barely speak a whole sentence.
Flash forward a few years. I pitched my start up in front of a crowd, I joined Model United Nations in high school and college, I’ve been invited to speak on my entrepreneurial experience by some top universities in my country. It’s taken a lot to get here. And I’m still not where I want to be.
1. Apps to track progress and help you get better at public speaking
An app that you can use: “Speeko.”
I used to use this, it is beginner friendly and you can improve your public speaking skills as well.
2. Use topic generators
Go online and look up a topic generator. Generate a random topic, video yourself speaking on that topic. Don’t give yourself time to prepare anything - read the topic and start speaking. Set a time limit - you’ll realise that speaking for even 2 minutes can be quite difficult at times.
Not only does this make you realise that you may have limited language skills, but it will also make you realise exactly where you’re falling behind. Note down things in a journal.
- is grammar the issue?
- Lack of vocabulary?
- Too many filler sounds?
- Knowledge gap?
This is also a great idea if you’re at an intermediate level of learning a language/ polishing a language. Do this everyday and maintain a diary on your improvement.
3. Reading out loud
Select a news article or any article. Read out loud, slowly and steadily. Pronounce every syllable calmly.
A two minute read should take 5 minutes to read out loud. That’s how slow you should go. Not more than 4-5 words per breath.
Your tongue needs to get used to different syllables and sounds. Practice will help.
4. Talk in real life
Talk to anyone and everyone whenever you can.
Ask your barista how their day is going.
Ask your work or university security if they’ve had a good day and if they ate today.
Chat with your taxi driver about their life. I always start with asking them if they are from the city we’re travelling in. Even if you’re from that city, act like a tourist. Where are the best eateries? The conversation eventually goes to personal questions. How many children do they have, and what do they do? What do they like about the city?
You’ll learn the art of small talk only through practice. No book or guide can actually prepare you. You have to practice, practice and practice.
5. Diaphragm breathing
Diaphragm breathing is very important. Look up some YouTube videos for reference. You essentially breathe from your tummy (stomach goes in and out; not chest going up and down). This is a great calming exercise too.
6. Stuttering tongue/ jaw exercise videos
These are great because they really do prep your jaw and tongue well. The videos could include tongue stretches, placing your tongue on your palette correctly, etc. Search on YouTube.
7. Body posture
You really need to work on your posture too. Sit up straight. Back, STRAIGHT. Chin up, shoulders relaxed. Something as simple as posture can change your level of confidence.
8. Pranayama
A yoga exercise for breathing. You can find a guided video on YouTube for sure.
9. Vocabulary
Invest your time in expanding your vocabulary. There’s enough apps and games that can help you with that, if you aren’t fond of reading. A sign of being well spoken is having great vocabulary.
Start by looking up the synonyms of everyday words.
“I’m upset”
- how many different words can you find for upset?
“I had a crazy day today”
- one can easily use “hectic”, “chaotic” “lively” instead
10. Idioms
Idioms, phrases, sayings - look up common idioms in your language of choice. Aim to use at least 3 new idioms on 3 separate occasions in a week while you speak. You need to understand when and where you can use the idioms in your vocabulary.
11. Knowing when to switch
You can’t talk like a 50 year old heiress to a 10 year old child; you need to get down to their level.
If someone is clearly not a native speaker and is struggling to put words together, don’t use difficult words around them.
If you’re meeting with someone high profile, refrain from using slang.
The best speakers know when to switch their level of language.
You can’t use one singular type of speaking with everyone. You need to understand that there is a time and place for everything - and you’ll be able to switch like a pro only when you actually speak and start gaining experience.

Mastering the Art of Teaching: A Comprehensive Guide to 300 Hour Yoga Teacher Training
Tumblr media
Many aspiring yoga teachers start their journey by completing a 200 hour yoga teacher training. This lays a solid foundation, allowing you to confidently lead classes for beginners. However, taking your skills to the next level as a teacher requires dedicating time to deepen your practice and knowledge. This is where a 300 hour yoga teacher training comes in.
In a 300 hour yoga teacher training, you take your foundational understanding from a 200 hour and expand upon it greatly. The result is a comprehension of yoga that allows you to progress further as an instructor.
In this comprehensive guide, we will explore everything you need to know about 300 hour yoga teacher training programs.
Prerequisites for 300 Hour Yoga Teacher Training
Before enrolling in a 300 hour training, you must first complete a 200 hour yoga teacher certification. Some schools may require that your 200 hours cover certain topics like anatomy, philosophy, and sequencing. Having one year of teaching experience is also commonly encouraged. This ensures you have a solid base to build upon.
If your 200 hour training was not in depth, taking additional workshops in areas like adjustment techniques prior to your 300 hours can be helpful provided by Hathayogashram. Coming in with a curiosity to learn will set you up for success.
Key Topics Covered in 300 Hour Yoga Teacher Training
While each 300 hour program differs, most aim to expand your skills in:
Advanced Sequencing and Planning - Taking an in-depth look at planning classes, workshops, retreats. Learning to sequence intelligently for specific groups, energy levels, and goals.
Anatomy and Alignment - Building an expert-level understanding of functional anatomy and biomechanics for safe, effective poses and sequences.
Adjustments and Assisting - Refining hands-on assisting with in-depth adjustments methodology. Learning to see each student's unique body.
Teaching Methodology - Developing your voice and style as a teacher. Learning to hold space, cue skillfully, and facilitate transformational experiences.
Pranayama, Meditation, Chanting - Expanding your own practice and tools forguiding others in breathwork, meditation, mantras, and chanting.
Yogic Philosophy and Spirituality - Deepening your knowledge of yoga's philosophical and spiritual roots to integrate themes authentically into classes.
Business Skills - Building your brand, marketing yourself as a teacher, and establishing your own studio or teacher training program.
Benefits of 300 Hour Yoga Teacher Training
Investing in a 300 hour yoga teacher certification allows you to:
Build mastery as a teacher - Gain the advanced skills and confidence needed to teach diverse populations safely and effectively.
Increase credibility & opportunities - Have a more competitive edge as a teacher. Increased hiring potential and rates.
Deepen your own practice - Dedicate focused time to learning new perspectives that will continually advance your personal yoga practice.
Specialize your teaching - Study intricacies of specific styles like Ashtanga, Iyengar, or Vinyasa flow to guide others in them.
Find your unique voice - Develop your authentic style and learn to share yoga in a way that only you can.
Network & community - Surround yourself with like-minded practitioners who will support and inspire you on your path.
Immerse in yoga lifestyle - Live and breathe your practice fully through an intensive immersion training environment.
Tips for Choosing the Right 300 Hour Yoga Teacher Training
Make sure the program is Yoga Alliance certified - This ensures quality standards are met.
Read reviews and testimonials from past trainees
Look for experienced, knowledgeable teachers that inspire you
Consider the style and focus - Do you want something general or specialized?
Examine the schedule and structure - Do learning modules fit your goals? Is there time for self-study?
Ensure the location inspires you - Whether home studio or exotic retreat, it should deepen your practice.
Confirm you meet all prerequisites
Get a sense of the community and network it offers graduates
By selecting a 300 hour yoga teacher training that resonates with your needs, you will be well on your way to taking your practice and teaching to the next level. Immerse yourself in the transformative experience!

loving and moving my body this week (21.10.-27.10.)
Monday. energising pilates/barre mix [22 mins] // [10 mins surprise]
Tuesday. lower abs and small waist workout [10 mins] // [14 mins surprise]
Wednesday. pilates for posture [14 mins] // [7 mins surprise]
Thursday. yoga sculpt (with weights) [22 mins] // [12 mins surprise]
Friday. strengthen and stretch pilates [26 mins] // [7 mins surprise]
Saturday. belly-focused bellydance [22 mins]
Sunday. full body pilates [22 mins]
This semester, I'll be mostly in the library and at home - but this week my sport courses start! I'm excited for it, and for the new routine. It'll take some time to adjust, but I'm excited to see how I can fit my workouts in. And if I don't have time for the "longer" videos, I can always choose a quick surprise workout for the day! I'm really loving the surprise videos haha
In case the suggestion doesn’t feel right for that day, here are some alternatives (13 minutes or less, can also be used as add-ons). No shame in taking it slow! Let’s move according to our needs! :) bedtime yoga stretch to release stress & tension [13 mins]  // beginner’s ballet flexibility [8 mins]//  slow & smooth beginner belly dance workout [12 mins]  // lazy girl full body workout [7 mins] // express pilates [10 mins]

loving and moving my body this week (30.09.-06.10.)
Monday. Align your body Pilates routine [27 mins] // [11 min surprise]
Tuesday. Pussycat Dolls dance party [16 mins] // [11 min surprise]
Wednesday. pilates for mobility and flexibility [22 mins] // [6 mins surprise]
Thursday. ballet fitness [20 mins] // [8 min surprise]
Friday. belly dance workout for all levels [25 mins] // [10 min surprise]
Saturday. pilates/barre fusion [22 mins]
Sunday. yoga for better posture [25 mins]
For this week, I decided to try adding a tiny surprise movement break in the middle of each day — for when I’ve been sitting at a desk for too long. Since I don’t remember what they are, I get to unpack a little surprise gift each day, which is really fun! Plus, they’re all very short, so they’re guaranteed to fit into the busiest of schedules.
