With the stress of the modern day, it is absolutely essential to ensure that one has his or her chakras in perfect coordination. And the only way to do it is to follow a regular routine of yoga. CPS Global School, Thirumazhisai has already embraced yoga in its regular schedule and, it is, but natural that World Yoga Day will be a red-letter day in the school calendar.
The day initiated with a special assembly with teachers and students enthusiastically prepared to feel their inner energy through mass yoga. After a clear explanation by the yoga instructor as to how yoga can be beneficial to everyone, irrespective of the age or gender, all participated in doing some common, yet very effective asanas. Then the core yoga team comprising of students and teachers displayed more complicated asanas like Dhanurasana, Bhujangasana, Mayurasana, Shirshasana, Vakrasana, Ustrasana, Vrishchikasana and the like. It was really breathtaking to witness the agility and fitness both teachers and students demonstrated. The toddlers of ELP also indulged in activities based on yoga which imbued in them early on in life the essence of yoga.
The celebration continued with students preparing colourful posters and charts on different aspects of yoga which have been displayed all around the school to keep reiterating the fruitful outcome of making yoga a part of one’s existence.
All present internalized the importance and significance of our Vedic practice focusing on breathing, flexibility and strength to boost mental and wellbeing. No wonder, it has been accepted globally as one of the prime art of living practice. Truly,
“Yoga is a mirror to look at ourselves from within”
