Delhi Public School, Jhakri

International Yoga Day was observed and celebrated with great enthusiasm and zest by students and teachers of the school. A special one-hour yoga session was organised in the school’s main field to foster the feelings of harmony, peace and happiness among the students. Students performed different yoga postures, like suryanamaskar, vrikshasana, tadasana, bhujangasana and parvatasana, and pranayams, like kapalbhati, anulom-vilom, bhastrika and bhramari. This was a great opportunity for children to imbibe the value of discipline and mutual understanding as this year’s International Yoga Day’s theme is ‘Yoga for humanity’. Princiapl Dr Mukesh Kumar Gupta in his address to the students stated the benefits of yoga in one’s life and how one can gain inner strengths to succeed in all spheres of life. Yoga is a vital practice that brings all-round development as it strengthens one’s body, mind and soul and brings complete equilibrium in one’s aesthetic and spiritual development.
