International Yoga Day is observed on June 21 of every year. It is an invaluable gift of India’s ancient tradition. There will be unity of mind and body, actions and thoughts, fulfillment and restraint embodiments. It is not like exercise; it is to discover the sense with yourself of oneness. By creating consciousness and changing the lifestyle, it could help in well-being. It is very beneficial and necessary for all human beings when day by day practiced in the early morning. International Yoga Day is a worldwide event that is celebrated through practicing yoga, meetings, debates, etc., in all countries.

“Yoga is not about self-improvement, it is about self-acceptance.”
