International Yoga Day is a gentle reminder to commit to our well-being — physically, mentally, and spiritually.
Yoga connects us to our inner self and aligns us with nature. It nurtures our humanness and raises our collective consciousness for a brighter, more balanced future.

Our soldiers selflessly serve the nation, and through yoga, they also serve their own inner strength and resilience.
Let us be inspired by their discipline — caring for ourselves so that we may better serve our nation and humanity.

Wishing you all a peaceful and empowering International Yoga Day.

Recently, I had the opportunity to attend the Mind, Brain, and Consciousness conference organized by the Indian Knowledge System & Mental Health Applications (IKSMHA) department of IIT Mandi. My pursuit of well-researched, scientifically sound solutions to enhance the health and resilience of our soldiers—helping them cope with extreme physical and mental stress in challenging terrains and combat conditions through yoga-based practices—drew me to this event.

The conference was both insightful and reaffirming to witness how leading academicians and researchers from premier institutions like IIT Kharagpur, IIT Kanpur, IIT Gandhinagar, NIMHANS, DRDO, and IISc are engaging with fundamental questions of life: What is life? What constitutes existence? How do we differentiate between the mind, brain, and consciousness?

PhD scholars and researchers presented compelling evidence demonstrating the positive impact of yoga-based interventions on physical and mental health, supported by changes in neurophysiological biomarkers, hormonal levels, and heart rate variability. These findings indicate that the scientific community is on the right path. At the same time, there is growing recognition of the need to develop simplified and scalable assessment tools that can be applied effectively in real-world settings beyond controlled lab environments.

Disciplines such as Yoga, Indian classical music, Jyotish Shastra, and Ayurveda offer integrative approaches to holistic healthcare—supporting balance across physical, mental, and emotional dimensions through time-tested, individualized practices. There is a growing need for interdisciplinary platforms that facilitate the convergence of traditional knowledge systems and modern scientific methodologies, enabling evidence-based integration of India’s time-honored wisdom into contemporary healthcare frameworks.

Yoga reconnects with the breath, anchors awareness in the present moment, and renews inner strength amidst the demands of duty.

For the past three years, under the Breathe and Battle initiative by udChalo, we’ve been conducting yoga sessions for soldiers stationed across India’s border regions.

Our soldiers are the backbone of the nation’s strength. Their physical stamina, mental resilience, and emotional balance are as important as their weapons.

At udChalo , we consider it our duty and honour to care for their holistic well-being.

Through the timeless practice of yoga, we aim to restore, recharge, and empower the brave hearts who protect us.

Mastering the Three Breathing Muscles &
Full Yogic Breathing

Breathing engages three key muscle groups:

1️⃣ Diaphragmatic Breathing – The diaphragm moves up and down, and one must consciously move the abdomen outward on inhalation and toward the spine on exhalation to support this movement. Image 1

2️⃣ Intercostal Breathing – The ribcage expands and contracts sideways, engaging the intercostal muscles; termed as Thoracic breathing also.
Image 2

3️⃣ Clavicular Breathing – The clavicles lift and lower, activating the upper chest muscles. Image 3

Combining all three creates Full Yogic Breathing (image 4) optimizing oxygen intake, lung capacity, and energy levels. This enhances respiratory efficiency, reduces stress, and promotes overall well-being.

Breathe fully, live fully!

Happy Women's Day to all the वीरंदनाएं—the strong and resilient Fauji wives!

For nearly three years, under the Breathe and Battle, Yoga workshop project sponsored by udChalo, I've had the honor of guiding these incredible women through yoga. They face unique challenges—long separations, single-handedly managing families, and the emotional weight of their husbands serving the nation.

Through yoga, they are finding strength, balance, and inner peace. Breathwork, movement, and mindfulness are helping them navigate stress, anxiety, and loneliness, making them pillars of support for their families.

Saluting their unwavering spirit today and always!

Grateful for a Milestone in My Yoga Journey!

I am thrilled to share that I have received my convocation for M.Sc. in Yoga from SVYASA Bengaluru. Reflecting on this journey, I never imagined that my initial exploration of yoga as a spiritual practice would lead me to deeply understand its physical aspects—starting with asanas and then pranayama—and continue to inspire me to delve into its limitless dimensions.

Through this postgraduate program, I was fortunate to conduct research using yoga interventions. My thesis focused on working with soldiers deployed in high-altitude areas, a truly humbling and enriching experience. This course has ignited even greater enthusiasm within me to further contribute to the field of yoga.

I bow down in gratitude to my Gurus, family, and friends for their unwavering support throughout this journey.

Forever a student,
Lakhvinder Singh

Today marks the inaugural World Meditation Day, as proclaimed by the United Nations, highlighting the critical role of meditation in promoting physical and mental well-being and affirming everyone’s right to holistic health.

Meditation serves as a powerful tool in helping soldiers navigate the pressures due to the occupational requirements. Regular meditation not only enhances focus, resilience, and emotional stability but also aids in reducing anxiety, improving sleep, and building mental toughness. For soldiers stationed in high-altitude, high-stress environments, meditation becomes a lifeline, helping them reconnect with their inner selves and maintain balance.

Our Project Breathe and Battle Yoga Workshop bring tailored meditation practices to soldiers, helping them enhance focus, reduce anxiety, and find balance amidst their demanding lives.

A big thank you to the udChalo Breathe and Battle team for supporting this mission.

Happy World Meditation Day to all!

Waiting for my train at Suratgarh railway station, I noticed an elderly gentleman sitting effortlessly in a deep squat position, chatting with his friends and enjoying peanuts. For over 30 minutes, I observed his remarkable posture and eventually approached him out of curiosity.

In Punjabi, I asked, “Papa ji, tussi paer bhaar kinne der ton baitho ho! Dard nahi honda?” (How can you sit in this position for so long without pain?)

He smiled and replied, “Beta, main aise 2-3 ghante tak baith sakda. Mere daaye pair vich rod lagi h, sat laag si, phir vi kheton vich kaam karde haan, aise hi baith ke. Koi dard nahi honda. Assi bilkul fit haan. Dard kasse ka nahi.” (Son, I can sit like this for 2-3 hours.Because of an accident, I have a rod in my right leg, yet I work in the fields in this position. I feel no pain; I’m completely fit. Pain doesn’t bother me.)

His positivity and resilience inspired me deeply. At 65, despite his physical challenges, his approach to life is simple yet profound—work hard, stay happy, and never let pain define you.

As a yoga teacher, I often encourage my students to practice Malasana (the squat pose), which has immense benefits: it improves lower body strength, enhances deep breathing, boosts prana flow, improves sexual health and supports lower back health.

Let’s take inspiration from him and embrace a mindset of resilience and gratitude in our own lives.
Dard kase ka nahi!

Jai Hind! Jai Hind ki Sena!
कारगिल विजय दिवस की 25वीं वर्षगांठ पर सभी को हार्दिक शुभकामनाएँ!

I am happy to share that a month ago, Project- Breathe and Battle by udChalo reached Kargil Battle School (KBS) to share the knowledge of Yog with our soldiers.
Yogic practices, such as asana, pranayama, and meditation, can help soldiers cope with extreme weather conditions caused by hypobaric hypoxia at high altitudes. These practices support our soldiers, making them prepared for any war situation.
They are peaceful within yet formidable in their duties.

Kargil Battle School was set up by the Indian Army in the year 2000, to train jawans in mountain climbing and high altitude warfare. At Kargil Battle School, jawans undergo rigorous training.
