Theme : Yoga for One Earth , One Health
Every year on June 21st, the world comes together to celebrate International Yoga Day, a day dedicated to promoting physical, mental, and spiritual well-being through the ancient practice of yoga. This year’s theme, “Yoga for One Earth, One Health,” highlights the profound connection between individual wellness and the health of our planet.
At Amara Jyothi English School, we believe in nurturing not just academic excellence but also the holistic development of our students. Yoga plays a crucial role in fostering discipline, focus, and inner peace—qualities that are essential for a balanced life.
The Significance of This Year’s Theme
The theme “Yoga for One Earth, One Health” emphasizes the idea that the well-being of humanity and the environment are deeply interconnected. Yoga teaches us mindfulness, harmony, and respect for nature—values that are more important than ever in today’s world.
- Yoga for Personal Health: Regular practice improves flexibility, strength, and mental clarity while reducing stress and anxiety.
- Yoga for Environmental Consciousness: By promoting a sense of unity with nature, yoga encourages sustainable living and respect for our planet.
How Amara Jyothi Celebrated Yoga Day
This year, our school organized a special yoga session for students, teachers, and staff. The event included:
- Guided Asanas (Yoga Poses): Students practiced various postures like Surya Namaskar (Sun Salutation), Tadasana (Mountain Pose), and Vrikshasana (Tree Pose) to enhance physical and mental balance.
- Breathing Exercises (Pranayama): Techniques like Anulom Vilom and Kapalbhati were demonstrated to improve respiratory health and concentration.
- Meditation & Mindfulness: A short meditation session helped everyone experience inner calm and focus.
