Celebrities like Malaika Arora, known for her fitness, say that yoga is part of their lives.

Malaika Arora marked International Yoga Day with spectacular asanas and a heartfelt note, for her yoga is an enduring journey of balance, breath and growth. In her 50s, she can also beat any Gen Z when it comes to fitness.

Actor and fitness enthusiast Malaika Arora marked International Yoga Day by reflecting on her long-standing relationship with yoga and its positive impact on her life. Taking to Instagram on June 21, the fitness queen shared a heartfelt note about how yoga changed from a simple workout routine into a way of life. She also shared a few glimpses of her yoga practice and opened up about the lessons the discipline continues to teach her.  

Malaika says yoga is part of her life; it’s not just a workout for her.  For her, it’s the best way to reconnect, reset, and find balance. She started practicing yoga, which became the most essential and healing way in her life. A journey of breath, balance, and showing up. Yoga has become a passion for her, keep breathing, keep growing, with yoga, says the diva!

Malaika shares some asanas that she follows daily. Ustrasana (Camel Pose), Halasana (Plow Pose), Anjaneyasana (Low Lunge Pose), Ardha Kapotasana (Half Pigeon Pose), Virabhadrasana II (Warrior II Pose), Sarvangasana (Shoulder Stand). She practices all asanas to keep herself healthy, fit, and happy at any age.

Yoga has been practiced in India for ancient times; it is not just an exercise. It’s a breathing process to keep your mind and soul calm and grateful! Which is somehow missing in today’s Indian cultural routine. Fitness freaks like Malaika Arora emphasise the importance of yoga in our daily lives, as it will surely encourage the youth to perform yoga each day.
