Goodbye Headlines, Hello Headstands | Rishabh Shukla- The Yogi Awakens
Fifteen years. That’s how long I danced with words—crafting stories, shaping narratives, and building legacies in journalism and public relations. Awards lined my shelves, and my name echoed in brands across industries. But amidst the noise, I found silence calling me. And so, I did what many wouldn’t dare—I traded my press badge for a yoga mat.
Yes, you heard it right. Rishabh Shukla, the storyteller, is now a YOGI.
I just completed my 200-hour Yoga Teacher Training with Bodsphere, under the guidance of the incredible Samarthya Sir and Preetika Bhatnagar Ma’am, and let me tell you—it was nothing short of a rebirth. I thought I knew everything about control, breath, and presence. Turns out, I knew nothing.
Here’s what hit me the hardest:
Your breath defines your life. Messy breath, messy mind.
Your body is a walking autobiography of your habits. It spills secrets no PR campaign can fix.
Yoga isn’t about acrobatics. Out of 195 sutras, only THREE talk about asanas. The rest? A masterclass in life.
Judgment is dead weight. Study yourself instead of critiquing every flaw.
Meditation isn’t about focus. It’s about waking up to reality.
Suffering? It’s optional. We carry baggage we were never meant to hold.
This journey has flipped my world upside down—literally and metaphorically. The journalist in me still craves stories, but now, I’m writing them through breath, movement, and stillness.
So, if you see me less in boardrooms and more in a headstand, don’t be surprised. The storyteller has found a new script—one written in sweat, silence, and surrender.
The Yogi has arrived.
Gratitude to Bodsphere, Samarthya Sir, and Preetika Bhatnagar Ma’am for this transformation.
