Yog pranayama achha hai. Heavy exercise karte hain, thoda tough hai. Main try kar raha hoon personality zyada achhi ho jaye parantu mujhee lagta hai yog pranayama kare wahi achha hai (I’m doing fine now. I just overworked myself and got fatigued. Yoga and pranayama are really good. Heavy workouts can be a bit tough. I was trying to improve my personality, but I think it’s better to stick to yoga and pranayama)."
