‘I meditate for an hour every morning’
Asked when he wakes up in the morning, he revealed he is up by 3 am and also spoke about the first thing he does in the morning. “I say my morning prayers by worshipping the dharti mata (mother earth) and our gurus and rishis (sages). Then I drink warm water, and it clears my stomach in a minute or two. Soon after, I bathe and then I meditate for an hour every morning,” he said in Hindi.
When asked if he ever cheats on his simple vegetarian diet, Baba Ramdev said ‘never.’ He also shared the yoga asanas everyone must do: “People should definitely do kapalbhati and anulom vilom.”
By following Baba Ramdev’s tips on fitness, diet, and yoga, you can adopt a holistic approach to wellness and achieve overall health and happiness. Here are some of his suggestions:
Follow sattvic diet
He believes sattvic food is essential for maintaining a balanced and healthy lifestyle. Sattvic food is derived from natural sources and is free from artificial additives, preservatives, and toxins. It is light, easy to digest, and doesn’t strain the digestive system. It helps balance the three doshas (vata, pitta, and kapha) and maintains harmony in the body.
