FORUM: " Yoga for Humanity'' International Yoga Day 2022.
The practice of Yoga has persisted through time and across traditions for centuries, and countless people across the world have made it an integral part of their lives. The COVID-19 pandemic has been an unprecedented human tragedy. Beyond itsimmediate impact on the physical health, the pandemic also exacerbated psychological suffering and mental health problems, including depression and anxiety, as pandemic related restrictions were introduced in various forms in many countries. It highlighted the need to address the mental health dimension of the pandemic, in addition to the physical health aspects. Multiple studies have confirmed the interdependent mental and physical benefits of yoga.
The meaning of Yoga is most commonly interpreted as a “union” – the union of the mind and the body. But it also signifies the interconnectedness of the human body and spirit to all the elements of the world that surrounds us.
