WHEN IS INTERNATIONAL YOGA DAY?

On International Yoga Day, June 21, stretch your body and ease your mind like never before.

HISTORY OF INTERNATIONAL YOGA DAY

People all across the world are getting ready to break out their yoga mats and start exercising for International Yoga Day, but they may not realize that yoga has been practiced for millennia.

Yoga is thought to be an ancient discipline that originated in India 5,000 years ago. Yoga was created as a technique to unite the mind, body, and spirit in order to go closer to enlightenment. As the technique gained popularity in the west, it was promoted as a form of exercise and relaxation, with promises that it could improve overall health, alleviate physical injuries, and relieve chronic pain.

Prime Minister Narendra Modi first presented the notion of International Yoga Day on September 27, 2014, during his speech to the United Nations General Assembly, when India’s Ambassador, Asoke Kumar Mukerji, sponsored a resolution designating June 21 as International Yoga Day.

The date of June 21 was chosen because it is the Summer Solstice, the day of the year when there is the most sunlight. Overall, 177 countries signed on to declare June 21 as International Yoga Day, the biggest number of co-sponsors for any UN resolution.

Nearly 36,000 individuals, including Prime Minister Modi and many other high-profile political personalities from around the world, performed 21 asanas (yoga poses) for 35 minutes in New Delhi on June 21, 2015, in what was the first International Yoga Day, which since been observed around the world.

TRADITIONS OF YOGA DAY

Because International Yoga Day is a new celebration, there are no long-standing customs. Yoga, on the other hand, is an ancient art that replenishes the mind and calms the soul. The purpose of the day is to inspire new people to embrace the yogi lifestyle and align with their inner chakra.

Newcomers to yoga join up and construct their own flow of moves while listening to their favorite calming music. New yoga mats and yoga trousers are purchased prior to beginning the practice. Those who are already adept at yoga experiment with new combinations and introduce them to their friends. Instructors also provide special group yoga retreats.

INTERNATIONAL YOGA DAY ACTIVITIES

1. Bring your Tree Pose outside and into nature

Yoga positions might benefit from some fresh air when practiced outside. You can practice on the beach, in a park, or even in your own garden. Having fresh things to focus on when you’re in a new location can make it much more engaging.

2. Carry on with your “om” duties

Create your own movement flow and experiment with new musical combinations. A shift in movement or music can sometimes help you focus your energies and flawlessly sync your breathing to musical transitions.

3. Introduce a yogi friend to the practice

Bringing a friend along can provide the extra push you need to change up your routine. Not only can their presence motivate you to enhance your postures, but they may also be able to take advantage of special free yoga offers for new students. Win-win situation.
