I want to be the Lady Baba Ramdev: Mansi Gulati

As people around the globe are still quite kicked about yoga after the first International Yoga Day on June 21, there are a few newer forms of yoga that have also been gaining attention now. Coimbatore recently witnessed such a yoga workshop where people were introduced to something called face yoga. Mansi Gulati, who conducted the workshop says, “This was the first time I conducted a workshop in Coimbatore and the response was good.”
The Hyderabad-based yoga trainer, who has been practising yoga from the age of nine, says that face yoga is gradually catching up across the country.“Face yoga has umpteen number of benefits and they aid in increasing blood flow and removing toxins. The facial exercises also help in reducing puffiness from the cheeks, cure dark circles, acne, pigmentation, wrinkles, double chin, laugh lines and even crow’s feet. It also helps one stay young and thus, delaying the ageing process. Five minutes of facial exercises every day and beauty is at one’s finger tips,” says Mansi.
When asked about the age limit to do the facial exercises, she says, “Anyone above the age of 12 can do face yoga. The best part is that it can be done any time during the day, even while watching television. Though it initially caught up among women, there are now many takers among men as well. Face yoga along with regular yoga can do wonders to your body. ”
Mansi is also the mother of a nine-year-old. “It’s my daily yoga routine that keeps me going. Yoga has caught up in a big way in the West, despite its Indian origin. I want to spread awareness about yoga and face yoga across the country. I want to be the Lady Baba Ramdev. As far as Coimbatore is concerned, I will be back soon with more extensive sessions,” says Mansi.
