The festive season is upon us once again and with all the merriment that goes along with it comes a barrage of side effects - eating too much, eating too late, sleeping late, getting up later than usual and in general, our normal routine being thrown for a toss. That is why it takes a few days to ‘ recover ’ after festivities. But do we have to accept this? Or is there a better way of getting through celebrations without the need to recover after?
Yoga strongly advocates responding rather than reacting to any situation - leaving knee-jerk reactions aside and taking the time to ponder our actions. Often times, a few deep breaths taken at the right time can greatly change the outcome and prevent a hasty decision that is later regretted.
