Sample Answer

‘Health is wealth’ is a famous proverb which says that health is more precious than money. It is always good to lead a healthy life and stay active. Any physical activity does not guarantee a long life, but it definitely ensures a healthy life. A few years back, I was having some health issues due to my unhealthy lifestyle. So, I picked up yoga to stay healthy and fit. In order to remain healthy and fit, I do yoga every morning for an hour. Yoga is a perfect blend of pranayama and meditation. Therefore, it not only enhances my physical strength but also improves my mental health. It also keeps me positive and energetic throughout the day.

Although yoga originated in ancient India, nowadays, the whole world is practising it. The benefits of yoga are often misunderstood, so its benefits are only limited to the physical level. However, yoga establishes a balance between our mind, body and soul. Yoga poses strengthen our bones and muscles. Sun salutation and Kapalabhati pranayama are highly useful techniques for weight loss. Therefore, yoga controls our mind and actions, thereby offering overall fitness.

Now, yoga has become an integral part of my life. It not only controls my weight but also helps me to relieve stress and anxiety. Being a regular practitioner, I have highly benefited from this physical exercise. It has improved my immunity and provided inner peace as well. I have not only become healthy but have also become calm and composed. Due to yoga and meditation I remain happy and peaceful. As a result, I am able to maintain healthy relations with everyone around me.
