Meditation keeps me calm: Himanshu Rai

Himanshu Rai, who is currently seen as Keshav Kulkarni in 'Mere Sai - Shraddha Aur Saburi' says meditation keeps him calm and composed.


Rai said, "In today’s hectic world, we all are struggling to prove ourselves, peer pressure and cutthroat competition are making things worse for us. In the our field, where every day brings new challenges, where everything is uncertain the stress can have adverse health effects. I do meditation, which keep me calm and helps me enter a state of deep relaxation. For me its the best stress buster."

He further added, "Apart from improving your physical health, I think we should take time out to nurture our mental health as well. We actors face a lot of rejections every now and then, which sometimes terribly disappoint us. Meditation helps me rekindle my inspiration and motivation and control anxiety, which keeps me moving."

The dashing actor learned meditation when he was in school and is practicing it since he was 10 years old. "Meditation was part of our school curriculum, that's how I learned it. I remember when we were in school, we used to meditate daily because there was an entire period dedicated to it. It helped us perform better in the exams and efficiently handle academic stress. I am grateful to my teachers, who taught me meditation, which is still helping," says Himanshu.
