My journey to a healthy life began not in a gym, but with a life-changing car accident in 2019. For six months, I was bedridden, recovering from severe injuries. While my body was slowly healing, I gained a significant amount of weight and felt my confidence slipping away. The accident had stripped me of my ability to move freely, and even after recovering, I felt stuck. I tried morning walks, but the progress was slow, and I felt defeated.

He explained that a healthy life isn’t just about intense workouts; it’s about consistency and kindness to your body. He gave me a simple, yet powerful, plan: a five-pose morning ritual that changed everything for me. These five poses became the cornerstone of my recovery, helping me regain strength, manage my weight, and find my confidence again.
