June 21 is observed as the International Day of Yoga worldwide in order to spread awareness about the benefits of yoga. Yoga, an ancient physical, mental and spiritual practice that originated in India is a lifestyle, rather than a wellness practice. International Yoga Day is celebrated with much vigour in India and this year the nation is celebrating the eighth International Yoga Day. The theme for this year’s yoga day is ‘Yoga for Humanity’.


Prime Minister Narendra Modi has kickstarted the International Day of Yoga celebrations in Mysuru in Karnataka. Over 15,000 people are participating in the Yoga celebrations along with the PM at the Mysore Palace grounds. While addressing the people the Prime Minister said, “This whole universe starts from our own body and soul. The universe starts from us. And, Yoga makes us conscious of everything within us and builds a sense of awareness. Yoga brings peace for us. The peace from yoga is not merely for individuals. Yoga brings peace to our society. Yoga brings peace to our nations and the world. And, Yoga brings peace to our universe.”
