International Yoga Day was conducted on 21st June 2019 at Auxilium Convent High School campus from 7 am to 8 am. First and foremost the students were made aware of the importance of Yoga in their lives, the use of a mat and the appropriate time to perform ‘yogasanas’.
Yoga represents the way of life which endows perfect health physical, mental and spiritual. ‘Yogasanas’ are for the balanced state of mind. A mat is used to ensure hygiene, comfort, and uniformity of temperature by insulation against ground contact. Yogasanas should be performed on an empty stomach.
