International Yoga Day
Yoga has become a part of daily life for millions of people worldwide.
It has emerged as the most friendly and trusted way to keep fit.
According to the United Nations, yoga helps with COVID-19 anxiety.
Yoga is also playing a significant role in the psycho-social care and
rehabilitation of COVID patients in quarantine and isolation.
In this collaboration Akal Academy Gomti also organised a Yoga Camp in
the school Campus for teachers and on zoom for all the Students.
A Special trainer, Mrs Harjinder Kaur, the alumni of Akal Academy
Gomti and Baru Sahib (H.P.) was invited in school to hold the session.
The yoga session started at 9:00 a.m. The whole session was divided in
two parts. First, 9:00 a.m. to 9:30 a.m. for Girls and Second from
9:40a.m. to 10:10 a.m. for boys.
The students joined the Yoga session on Zoom. It was a wonderful
Session . Mrs Harjinder Kaur explained the significance of Yoga while
performing different Aasans. She requested everyone to make Yoga a
part of daily life to remain healthy and fit even during this typical
covid 19 time period.
She started the session with Deep breathing techniques; pranayama
followed the warm up Exercise. She helped the students to perform
Surya namaskar (Two Sets). The session got more interesting with a
small sequence of asanas

* Challenges were also given to students and teachers(holding posture
for seconds).
