Being Healthy in Body and Mind
Yoga is a practice that connects the body, breath, and mind. It uses physical postures, breathing exercises, and meditation to improve overall health. Yoga was developed as a spiritual practice thousands of years ago. According to the National Institutes of Health, scientific evidence shows that yoga supports stress management, mental health, mindfulness, healthy eating, weight loss and quality sleep.
The Empress express its THANKS to SHREYA for her contribution in conducting these classes for the Crew .
Message From Chief House Keeper - Silvester Murzello
Life at the sea is not a job for the weak of mind.
Life at the sea teaches you the harsh realities of life.
Real time challenges, long tiring working hours it teaches you to adjust yourself to the hectic schedule.
The life can be hard and sometimes it can be lonely.
Life on land is easier than life on sea.
Long periods away from the touch of a loved one.
The voice of one’s near and dear ones, the last night barrage of texts and phone calls with a partner.
And apart all this the love for their job makes them all truly happy on board ships.
Finding joy in the small and unique pleasures is what keeps each one of them strong, miles away from home.
