Deepika Padukone celebrates ‘Self Care’ moment as she shares details of her pregnancy workout

Deepika Padukone, who was recently seen glowing at the Kalki 2898 AD promotions, took to social media to share a special note, celebrating Self-Care month. The actress, who has now entered her third trimester, is a happy to-be mother who loves to fulfill her cravings but at the same time, she is quite conscious about her health. In fact, Padukone recently revealed in a post that she has been taking extensive care during her pregnancy and shared some details about her workouts.

Deepika Padukone shares a photo of her doing ‘Viparita Karani’

Taking to her official Instagram page, the actress posted a picture of her doing the ‘leg-up-the-wall’ pose and penned in the caption about the importance of workouts in her life and said, “It’s Self-Care Month. But why celebrate ‘Self-Care Month’ when you can practice simple acts of self-care every day? I love a good workout. I don’t work out to ‘look good’ but to ‘feel fit’. Exercise has been part of my lifestyle for as long as I can remember. However, when I can’t fit in a workout, I practice this simple 5-minute routine. I do this every day, whether I work out or not. It’s especially useful after a long flight or just to decompress.”

Urging her fans to join her in this workout regime, the actress further instructed them on the Viparita Karani pose, and added, “In Sanskrit, *viparita* means “inverted” and *karani* translates to “in action.” This active inversion position is also called the restful inversion. Lying with your legs up against the wall can benefit your mental and physical health. From calming the nervous system to strengthening immune health, this ancient posture offers so much, especially in our stressful and busy world.”

The actress in the same post also shared multiple benefits of the pose and at the same time warned people suffering from glaucoma and high blood pressure to refrain from doing this pose. Reacting to her post, her husband Ranveer Singh agreed to his wife’s advice and wrote, “Worked like magic”.
