HELP YOGA GIVES BACK TO GIVE BACK

LOS ANGELES, CA, USA, June 19, 2023/EINPresswire.com/ — June 21 was proclaimed to be International Yoga Day on December 11, 2014 when the United Nations officially designated it as such.

“Yoga is an ancient physical, mental and spiritual practice that originated in India. The word ‘yoga’ derives from Sanskrit and means to join or to unite, symbolizing the union of body and consciousness. Today it is practiced in various forms around the world and continues to grow in popularity. The International Day of Yoga aims to raise awareness worldwide of the many benefits of practicing yoga,” stated the United Nations.

Various yoga sessions are happening throughout the world for this celebration: Australia, Canada, China, Japan, Hong Kong, Indonesia, Israel, UAE, UK, many cities in USA.
