21 June International Yoga Day

Yoga Day is celebrated across the globe to highlight the importance of Yoga and its role in keeping the body and mind in perfect health. Practicing different asanas and pranayama calms the mind by allaying one’s fears and anxiety. The significance of Yoga Day should be seen in the light of spreading awareness on the issue of mental and physical well-being. International Day of Yoga also aims to inculcate a habit of meditation for peace of mind and self-awareness which is necessary to survive in a stress-free environment. 

The theme for International Yoga Day 2022 is ‘Yoga for Humanity’. The ministry has designed special programmes for the specially-abled and transgender population, women and children. The 8th edition of International Yoga Day will also witness an innovative programme ‘Guardian Ring’ that will see the participation of enthusiasts, along with the sun’s movement, i.e. beginning from the east and marching towards the west.
