Taapsee is one of the fittest actresses in showbiz and she spends quite a lot of time playing sports such as squash to keep herself fit. And it turns out that, of late, she has taken an immense liking to Yoga and meditation. On the occasion of International Yoga Day, Taapsee took to social media profiles to encourage her fans and followers to meditate at least for some time everyday.

Explaining how she embraced Yoga and meditation, Taapsee wrote, “Like most of us, I always thought that yoga is just about twisting our body into complicated contortions and about being a human pretzel. Until @munmun.ganeriwal told me it isn’t. Sitting on the mat every day for few minutes, trying to tune in even when infinite thoughts might interfere, offers as much benefits to our body and mind. The act of meditating is actually classified as ‘Upasana Yoga’ in Yogic scriptures.” And she urged people to meditate a bit everyday saying, “As @munmun.ganeriwal says, “the best way to begin a meditation practice is to begin!” #InternationalYogaDay2020.”

In fact, ever since the whole country went into a lockdown, Taapsee and her sister Shagun have been practicing Yoga everyday at their home in Mumbai, apart from exercising to keep themselves fit.

Like most of us, I always thought that yoga is just about twisting our body into complicated contortions and about being a human pretzel. Until @munmun.ganeriwal told me it isn’t. Sitting on the mat every day for few minutes, trying to tune in even when infinite thoughts might interfere, offers as much benefits to our body and mind. The act of meditating is actually classified as ‘Upasana Yoga’ in Yogic scriptures. An incredible stroke of luck is that International Yoga Day today coincides with the Solar Eclipse. An eclipse is one of the best time to deepen our spiritual practice, so make sure you meditate today for few minutes at least. If you are thinking how to start …. @munmun.ganeriwal says, “the best way to begin a meditation practice is to begin!” #InternationalYogaDay2020
