Pooja Hegde, who had recently tested positive for the coronavirus, is reaching out to people from the four walls of her house while in quarantine as she did a live session on her social media with popular yoga teacher, Mihir Joglekar. The live session was about breath-work/pranayama to help during these trying times of Covid, wherein building the lung capacity is imperative.

Pooja said, "Let's bring upon ourselves peace, loads of love and magical power that is to be able to cope, so let's just bring on that energy." Talking to her yoga teacher she added, "In these times of Covid, paying attention to your breath has become so important and thank you for making us realise that we have everything (that we got this) that we need to bring power back into our own hands and these are just small things that we can do." She reiterated how "applied knowledge is power".

Pooja shared the video on her Instagram writing, "Pranayama techniques to calm ourselves and help us breathe better. Much important in times of COVID. Thank you @jogmihir for a lovely class ❤️"

The actress urged everyone to share the video with not just anyone suffering from Covid but also others as she said, "Why to wait till you get COVID? Do it, in general, to bring health back to focus."
