'Why Yoga IS Important ' - Going through the word gives me a sense of joy, enthusiasm, and calmness. Yoga has been derived from the Sanskrit word "YUJ" which means unification of the individual soul with the Supreme soul. Yoga not only allows us to get United to the Supreme but also provides us with the platform to enhance our posture, leading us to a healthy and long life. It connects us with our culture. But in real are we performing Yoga? The answer can be both yes or no. But if it is not then why are we not? We should ask ourselves the question of why? We can still start it as we are getting an opportunity in the form of a day which is International Yoga Day on 21st June. In this fast-running life people are getting into depression, they are getting anxiety attacks. Can we do something about it without taking any medications, the answer is yes. It is Yoga which acts as a regulator for our body it regulates our body functions, muscles and bones, and mind; basically, it helps us in wholesome development. So let's pledge on this Yoga day to give something positive to our body that is, the habit of performing Yoga.
