International Yoga Day ❤️💪🧘🧘♀️🧘♂️June 21
originating in India, the word 'yoga' is derived from Sanskrit, meaning to unite. This unity
signifies the ultimate union of the body with consciousness and thus attaining definitive
peace. Recognizing the universal appeal of Yoga, on December 11 2014, the United Nations
proclaimed June 21 to be marked as the International Day of Yoga. The theme for International Yoga Day 2023 is "Yoga for Vasudhaiva Kutumbakam." Yoga is an old practice that combines physical postures, meditation, breathing exercises, and ethical principles to promote the overall well-being of people.
It was first started by our present Prime Minister, Shri Narendra Modi. He celebrated Yoga Day for the first time on June 21 in 2015, after which Yoga Day started being celebrated all over the world on June 15, and it turned into International Yoga Day. Since then,
Yoga Day has been celebrated every year by the Ministry of Ayurveda, Yoga, Naturopathy,
Unani, Siddha, Sowa-Rigpa and Homoeopathy (AYUSH) in India.
