The summer when I decided to take up running turned out to be one of my best decisions ever. It was one of those scorching July afternoons where the air felt heavy, and every step felt like a struggle against the heat. I kept telling myself that all that sweating meant I was burning extra calories. But when I…
As I stepped into a hot yoga class for the first time in my life, I noticed something unusual. The moment I walked in, it felt like I had entered a sauna, and within just a few minutes, I was completely soaked in sweat. By the end of that session, I felt so much lighter, and when I hopped…
