Yoga Helps Indian Men: Over the past few years, the Indian Men and Women's Hockey Teams have made yoga a part of their routine.
With the game demanding the best out of the players, practising yoga has had several benefits in keeping their minds and body fit.
On the occasion of International Yoga Day, stars of Indian Hockey Teams express how adding this ancient practice has helped them in their performance. Hardik Singh, Indian Men's Team vice-captain, said, "At first when we were introduced to Yoga, we felt like it was too slow and it was not easy to get all the asanas right. Many of us preferred pumping weights in the gym to practising an hour of Yoga. But eventually, we have come to realise that practising Yoga has helped tremendously in the power of mindfulness."
