strenuous exercise. Individuals suffering from vata or pitta illnesses, youngsters, the elderly, and those suffering from indigestion should abstain from heavy exercising. According to Dr Bhavsar, this does not imply that people should remain immobile. Joint discomfort and stiffness issues are frequent in people who suffer from vata disorders. For such people, gentle exercise or sukshma vyayama and pranayamas are preferable, as vigorous activity may result in burnout.
Children are always active and running around and playing. As a result, they do not require more exercise. She said, “But these days, children are more into gadgets, so an outdoor game which involves running is a must”. Gastric problems are frequent in the elderly group; therefore, they should avoid strenuous activity. They would benefit more from walks, 20 minutes of exercise, yoga, and pranayamas. Those who have extreme stomach discomfort as a result of indigestion should choose vajrasana, walks, and pranayamas. She said, “Once the food is digested, they can exercise”.
