Namita Nayyar:
What comprises your fitness regime? How do you manage your workout with your acting schedules?
Anupriya Goenka:
Fitness-wise, I am flexible. I try different things during the course of the year. In between, I was trying boxing. I was also doing a lot of horse riding, weight training, and functional fitness once in a while. I also like doing Yoga. So, I keep jumping around and doing different things. During shoot days, it does get tough, but I try to squeeze in a brisk walk, running, or functional training, if possible. If nothing else, I make sure to do Suryanamaskars. I do take out 30-40 mins of time for the workout.
Namita Nayyar:
Besides physical fitness, how do you keep up with your mental wellbeing, do you try to practice meditation and mindfulness
Anupriya Goenka:
Mental and physical fitness is one of the key ways to be happy and progress in life. Everything we want in life is possible as long as we work towards it from a sound frame of mind and a fit body. We keep chasing after our dreams and ignore fitness, which decreases our chances of succeeding in our journey or being happy. So, please take care of yourself and the people around you. Have dialogues, share your feelings, and be open. Love and work on yourself productively both at the mental and physical levels.
Namita Nayyar:
With, new year around the corner, what are your goals and affirmations for 2022
Anupriya Goenka:
My goals and affirmations for 2022 would be to work more on mental health and physical fitness. I would like to continue my daily routine as much as possible of meditation, writing, working on myself, and traveling much more! I really want to spend more quality time with my friends and family this coming year. Also, since I have a couple of projects lined up. Definitely hope to work on characters that push the boundaries and make me explore new as an actor. I plan on learning a new skill, maybe singing. I would initiate the process for the same.
Namita Nayyar:
Lastly, message for our readers on prioritizing mental and physical fitness
Anupriya Goenka:
Mental fitness is crucial and is not easy to maintain, especially in the industry that we are in. I do follow certain things, and I keep struggling with them at times. But I try and keep developing these habits year by year. One thing I really enjoy doing is morning pages. It is a process where one writes a couple of pages every morning as soon as they get up and vomit out everything that is in their headspace. It helps in bringing clarity to one’s life. Meditation is something that I have always struggled with, but very recently, I have found a little bit of success. It really does help a lot. Listen to music or do something that you enjoy the most, like I love horse riding, to maintain mental balance. I also suggest staying away from social media because it is a big boon, but it can be a curse if overdone.
