Earlier this week the UN celebrated the 7th annual International Day of Yoga. You can find the event for 2021 and previous year’s events on UN Web TV. The celebration honors the universality of yoga. Yoga is practiced around the globe. Yoga can be done by males, females, transgender, kids, adults and the elderly. It can be practiced in bed, on a mat, in a chair or standing up. Yoga does not contain one specific way of practicing. The physical practice of yoga is highly adaptable to meet the unique needs of each person. Yoga can benefit your body, your mind and your spirit. It offers physical practice, a way to understand your mind and provides connection. The practices of Yoga can be used to support mainstream medicine.
National Center for Complementary Integrative Health (NCCIH) is the Federal Government’s lead agency for scientific research on complementary and integrative health approaches. NCCIH considers yoga a complementary health approach that benefits two of their three main categories of health: psychological and physical health. NCCIH has evidence based research suggesting that Yoga may benefit people’s general wellness. Some preliminary research suggests that yoga benefits a person’s general well-being by addressing a person’s response to stress, balance, and positive mental/emotional health.
