Yoga With Veena

Cold sips & memories in the making ❤️

Fresh coriander, hand-crushed spices, and chutney made with pure intention — not just food, it’s medicine from my soil.

Trust the journey, even when you don’t understand it 🌸

You don’t have to do everything, just choose what feels right in that moment. If you’ve been feeling anxious, overstimulated, or stuck in your head, follow this which I have mentioned above ✨🤍

Anxiety doesn’t start in the body. It starts in the mind and nervous system. When we’re constantly thinking, scrolling, working, or over-stimulated, the body forgets how to feel safe. And that’s when anxiety, restlessness, overthinking, and even physical symptoms begin. I’m sharing simple, self talk to calm and reset your nervous system — things you can do anytime, anywhere, without needing anything fancy. Here you can talk to yourself: - It is okay to feel this way. - This moment is painful, but it doesn't define me. - I can be kind to myself while I figure this out. -This is how I am feeling just now, and tomorrow can be different. - I deserve peace, and it is okay to rest. These are tools I personally use and teach as a yoga student & teacher, especially on days when: • my mind won’t slow down • my body feels tense or heavy • anxiety shows up without warning This is not about “fixing” yourself. It’s about bringing your body back into safety.

Asana is just one of the 8 limbs of Yoga from the Patanjali’s Sutras - 1. Yama – Ethics (restraints) 2. Niyama – Discipline (observances) 3. Asana – Posture (body) 4. Pranayama – Breath (energy control) 5. Pratyahara – Withdrawal (sense control) 6. Dharana – Focus (concentration) 7. Dhyana – Meditation (awareness) 8. Samadhi – Liberation (absorption) So why is Asana so emphasized? Because it is visible. But asana is a doorway, not the destination. Start with it, but don’t stop there 🌱

On this sacred night of Mahashivratri, may you release ego, awaken awareness, and feel the divine presence within you. May Lord Shiva guide you toward inner peace and higher consciousness. shubh mahashivratri 🙏🏻

Mahashivratri Fast 🌙 Mahashivratri fast is not just about skipping food it’s about cleansing the body and calming the mind. You can choose according to your capacity: • Fruits + nuts + milk (most common) • Light sattvic meal (if you’re working or new to fasting) • Avoid heavy, processed, or tamasic food • Stay hydrated • Do chanting (Om Namah Shivaya) and at least one meditation at night More important than food fasting fast from negativity, gossip, anger, and overthinking. Who should NOT fast strictly (without food/water): • Diabetics • Low BP / weakness issues • Pregnant or breastfeeding women • Anyone with medical conditions • If you are on medication • If your sleep is already very disturbed If you fall into these categories, please do a light sattvic fast or just focus on meditation and chanting. Shiva is about awareness, not suffering 🤍

You have to change your perspective to discover the power you didn't know you had.

Imperfections are proof that you’re human… and deeply lovable. 🌿
