The Power of Breath: Yoga's Psychological Benefits | Anjali Mehta | TEDxYouth@SAS
Anjali Mehta explores the psychological benefits of yoga through her own personal experience as a teenage yoga instructor. She shows the impact yoga can have on calming one's mental state through the simplest of actions: breathing.
Anjali Mehta is a junior at Singapore American School as well as a yoga instructor and yoga therapist. When Anjali started yoga, she was 10 years old. Amidst the extreme expectations for her future, yoga brought her comfort and relaxation; after training to teach at Vyasa Yoga, she started teaching at only 14 years old. She has taught at many places, including the Indian High Commission, Nola Yoga, as a PE teacher for the elementary school at SAS, and even as a trainer for future yoga instructor. Her passion for yoga is boundless, and she plans to continue her involvement for years to come. Other than yoga, Anjali shares a deep passion for clinical psychology which she would like to pursue in the future. She is also a major foodie, writing, reading and is a guitar and badminton player.

Ending with golden words, "It takes one though for everything to collapse but one breath to find peace"...
Ending with Golden Words. It Takes one Thought for everything to collapse,but One Breath to Find PEACE. Thanks Alot.
I don’t understand why this has had any down thumbs. Maybe those need to take more notice of the content of this video. This is brilliant! What a brave young lady to bring so many gifts to all those open to receive them.
Wow...! I am on halfway listening to her angelic voice I gave thumbs up until the explanation about her field.
You go girl! You just explained a truth with simplicity and that is a reflection of how amazing you are and how amazing everyone can be!
This young lady seems so sure and confident, it was wonderful to listen to her, she's so real.
very good, I am happy to see now people are understanding the power of yoga & meditation. this works on the concept of " prevention is better than cure" when any one do these regularly then his brain function as well as body functions will work in a better way, there will not be less or no chance of any diseases.
So simple yet so inspiring, thank you.
This is the best Ted Talk I have ever seen. Beautiful words on meditation. 🌺🕉🌺
Wow! You just explained Yoga for me better than any spiritual leader or yogi i've listened to before. Simple and direct, but that also opens up the words of those spiritual leaders/yogi's etc. as well.
Love this what an awakening soul I can really connect and understand what you are saying❤️
Thank you for explaining the concept really well and also for the meditation in the end. Thanks Anjali!!
the way she explained it. WOW! what a great speaker
wonderful, Anjali, You are not only young and so charming but an effective speaker. . .One can feel that its coming straight from your heart.

Not many young youths are lucky to have parents that you have. Wellcome you to goa.
You came into this life Anjali to continue yoga that you learned in your previous life...
Great talk.
Thanks for the presentation.....just thinking, we all go through so much hardship to earn butter & bread without which we may live for some days but we don't care about breath, without which we may die in few minutes...Alhamdulillah at least we got free air for that and thank you Ms. Anjali to show how to breath. Thanks

So very true. Pranav enters your body, relaxing every muscle, relaxing your mind, allowing you to become completely still. With practice this can be achieved. Relieving worries completely.
Great job you lightworker you!! 🙏

Interesting. Nice talk
Yoga good for health.mently and physical.surya namàskar yoga and pranyanam on morning time daily good for inner thoughts.
I luv u AnJali..
It take one thought so every thing collapsed And one thought for peace ☮️
I agree with what she said. A veryvery ancient form of yoga: "Swara Yoga"- is entirely dedicated to this. I had learned about it 2 years back through a book "The Tantric science of Brain breathing" written by a female Australian sanyasi Swami Muktibodghananda. That book completely changed my understanding of this deep science called Yoga.

Yoga is union or joining of the self and the super soul. Its a transcendental thing. Yeah body and mind connect too but this is at a very basic level.
Amazing
Such a beautiful person
Yoga=Mind+Body Profound! :)

I didn't do any yoga asanas because it doesn't work much But I did anulomvilom pranayama for 1 hour daily for nine months Anulomvilom pranayam is the best pranayam to get out of depression.I was in depression and anxiety disorder for last 5 years but now I am totally fit

Excellent.. 1 hour of Anuloma Viloma pranayama... Thats great... I totally agree with your experience. Let us educate the mankind to understand the importance of Yogasana and Pranayama. Many diseases can be cured completely at what ever stage it is. Be it Diabetes, Hypertension, Joint pains or even Cancer if practiced constantly.

sd i also have anxiety and depression from 3 years But i cannot do pranayama for longer time because i start feeling suffocated? Does it happen?
Sukriya ji
I agree that breath is the basis of meditation. I don’t sit down and meditate for hours at a time but when I practice archery I find the slow methodical steps matched with a breathing exercise (which is a necessary element of any shooting sport) it is a form of meditation for me. Everything falls away and I just focus on that one moment and series of movements
Tnx sis
bEATIFUL!
Am Here By Seeing the Title, The Power of Breath !!
nice
Yoga is not an exercise is an experience..I shared a video about mental benefits of yoga..share your experience there if you want
Good
What a wonderful young lady. We all need more yoga and meditation in our lives. Thank you for sharing your love, Anjali! "When we start paying attention to the services we receive, stop and really see the person who is doing it and take the time to say thank you, our entire day will change."
Nice clean awsome
Apart from everything else, She is so beautiful!
She‘s just gorgeous. Does anybody know if she has her own youtube channel?

One point was incorrect i.e we should exhale through nose only not from mouth... Thanx for sharing your experience
Try Sahaja Yoga for an easy way to get into true meditation (thoughtless awareness or Nirvichara Samadhi). Easiest way I have found.
Daily practice of yoga may produce many health benefits, including increased fitness and normalization of blood pressure. Ashwagandha capsules and giloy capsules from planet ayurveda will maintain your stamina and immunity naturally if added along with yoga.
