Shilpa captioned her video, “Sometimes, one needs to start their week on a calm and quiet note. Today is one such day for me when I just want to relax my mind and calm myself down. So today, I practiced the Parsva Sukhasana. It helps relieve the pent-up stress and anxiety that gradually affects the immune system and one’s overall health. Physically, it helps stretch the neck, shoulders, obliques, and back. Take some time off whenever you can, choose to practice this asana, and let your mind & body just go with the flow.”

In the end, she said that “a calm and composed mind and body can deal with a lot more than we can think of.”

Shilpa wore a blue tank top, with the words ‘Cardio Obsessed’ written on them, and teamed it with a pair of printed training tights. She tied her hair in a bun to make the workout fuss-free.
