When you engage in physical activity, you burn calories. The more intense the activity, the more calories you burn. You don't need to set aside large chunks of time for exercise to reap weight-loss benefits. If you can't do an actual workout, get more active throughout the day in simple ways - by taking the stairs instead of the elevator or revving up your household chores. It takes only a few minutes every day. When you cultivate a seed with love, the more it blossoms. For more information and to participate in the challenge , click here. | | 1) Talk on Jainism at Loyola Marymount University - May 18, 2016 The Yoga Studies Program at LMU is hosting a talk on Jainism on May 18, 2016, titled “Basic Principles of Jainism” by Ben Prabhu.
