Being Miss India is not only about external beauty, but also about the beauty that you hold within your pure heart. 99% of the appeal of a beautiful girl lies in her mind and attitude.

Most beautiful girls can seem ugly and unattractive because of their attitude, whereas even the most unattractive can become good by compassion, grace, caring and sharing. I help the girls learn that simply taking joy in whatever they do is the best makeup they can wear. Beside this, my training sessions included –

* Lots of breathing exercises (pranayama) to distress and boost them up with energy, confidence and creativity.
* Giving them guidelines and tips to maintain holistic health which included meditation to de-clutter the mind from their daily chores, worries and tensions and lead them to a liberated state of consciousness.
* Yoga, calisthenics and agility drills.
* Planning and executing healthy diet with loads of fruits, vegetables, sprouts, salads, veggie juices, dry fruits, nuts, millet or jowar rotis, brown rice, herbal and green teas.

The whole rigorous training was about bringing about a body-mind-soul connect, in order to focus on self-esteem, constructive attitude, productive behavior, thoughts and positive visualization in order to experience joy and happiness. In addition to making their body perfect, I try to enhance their poise, stamina and mental strength. The idea is not for them to not just compete but to get totally involved for sustainable improvement that lasts beyond the competition.

I wish them all the best and hope that they carry the beauty, which I have helped them cultivate, not only to the rest of the world but always within.
