International Yoga Day or Yoga Day is celebrated every year on June 21. Following the tradition, this year as well, the Yoga Day will be celebrated on June 21. The day came into being in 2015 after being declared unanimously by the United National General Assembly (UNGA). Talking about Yoga, it is a mental, physical and spiritual practice which roots back to India. In fact, our Prime Minister Narendra Modi suggested June 21 as International Yoga Day as it is the longest day of the year in Northern Hemisphere. The day holds a special significance in India as well as other parts of the world.

The idea of Yoga Day celebration was proposed by PM Modi during his speech at the UNGA in September 2014. During his speech, he said, “Yoga is an invaluable gift of India's ancient tradition. It embodies unity of mind and body; thought and action; restraint and fulfillment; harmony between man and nature; a holistic approach to health and well-being. It is not about exercise but to discover the sense of oneness with yourself, the world and the nature. By changing our lifestyle and creating consciousness, it can help in well being. Let us work towards adopting an International Yoga Day.”
