By the way, there are several great ways to connect with yourself — spending much with yourself. The journey to the depths of your soul and build that unbreakable bond.

It is important to connect to something greater than yourself regularly. Here is what you can do:

Place and an activity help in achieving a connection. The simpler way is 10 minutes of yoga practice, deep breathing or stopping to give thanks for your food. For more positive catalysts to give your soul the sustenance it deserves, here are some recommendations.

Focus on the gut

First and foremost, a good gut prevents you from getting sicking. A healthy gut plays a pivotal role in overall health. So, it is important to keep your gut good because it is directly connected between mind and body. Focus on yoga practice in this area of the body.

Bend your spine

A cleansing tool in yoga, this pose is the simplest way of letting go. Stand with your feet hip-width apart, hinge forward from the top of the groins, keeping a slight bend in your knees. Lay your chest on your upper thighs as you let your head fall towards the ground. Engage the quadriceps and slowly straighten your legs; ensure your knees don't lock and your hips stay over the centre of your feet. Hold for five-eight slow, deep breaths.

Walk barefoot

How do you feel walking barefoot on the grass? It brings a smile to your face when you feel relaxed and it nourishes your body, mind, and soul. Stroll on dewy grass at dawn and watch the sunrise. It has many benefits too. It removes negativity, releases your stress, improves your eyesight, keeps your mood light, etcetera. It allows the earth's negatively charged electrons to course through the body and cancel positivity-charged free radicals that cause cellular damage. This concept is called Earthing.

Laugh

Laughing is the best way to enhance your intake of oxygen-air, it stimulates your heart, lungs, and muscles. Laughing increases the endorphins that are released by your brain. Don't forget it is a natural therapy

THE SOUL(FUL) DIET

Celebrity nutritionist and fitness consultant Suman Agarwal charts your daily intake

1. At dawn: Start with warm water, add two teaspoons of honey and six drops of lemon juice.

2. Breakfast: A bowl of upma, poha or porridge with curd packs in enough carbs to release serotonin.

3. Mid-morning: Sip on chamomile or mint tea to refresh and activate your senses.

4. Lunch: Eat a balanced, protein-rich meal—rice, cooked lentils or pulses, cooked vegetables and fresh yoghurt—to aid the release of norepinephrine, which eases stress and keeps you alert.

5. High tea: A fistful of nuts may look small in quantity but they work in a big way to accentuate your alertness.

6. Dinner: Go with a meal similar to the suggested lunch. Avoid large quantities of carbs or fats to avoid feeling sluggish.

7. Bed-time: Enjoy a nourishing fresh fruit before ending your day.
