This year marks an important milestone as we celebrate the 10th edition of International Yoga Day in Ghana and worldwide.

Yoga has become a global movement promoting health and well-being.

In Ghana, a series of events were organised by the High Commission of India this month in collaboration with Yoga centres and local authorities in different parts of the country, including Ho, Kumasi and Tamale, besides Accra.

These events witnessed active involvement of diverse sections of society in public places, schools, universities and rehabilitation centres, aimed at spreading awareness of the multifaceted benefits of Yoga.

The High Commission of India celebrated the signature event in Accra on the lawns of Osu Castle on June 22, 2024, with the participation of political dignitaries, members of diplomatic corps, UN staff and Yoga enthusiasts from various walks of life.

Yoga, a timeless treasure from ancient Indian culture, is a unique practice that goes beyond physical exercise.

It offers a path to discovering the true essence of life. The term ‘Yoga’ is derived from the Sanskrit root ‘Yuj,’ which means ‘to join’ or ‘to yoke’ or ‘to unite.’ It symbolises the union of individual consciousness with universal consciousness, signifying a perfect balance between the mind and body, man and nature.

Practice

The practice of Yoga transcends geographical boundaries, making it a universal heritage of humanity.  Recognising Yoga’s global appeal, the United Nations General Assembly adopted a resolution by consensus on December 11, 2014, at India’s initiative, declaring June 21 as the International Day of Yoga.

The theme for International Day of Yoga celebration this year was ‘Yoga for Self and Society.’ For society at large, Yoga brings harmony among communities and nature, thereby creating an interconnected tapestry of well-being for individuals around the world.

It serves as a bridge between individuals and society. The practice of Yoga is not only limited to asanas (physical postures), which are the most popular - but also includes pranayama (breathing) and dhyana (meditation).

By integrating these three aspects, Yoga harmonises the body, mind, and spirit. Asanas are a preparatory process that helps the body sustain higher energy levels.

The process begins with the body, then the breath, the mind and the inner self. Yoga cultivates inner peace, clarity of thought and resilience, creating a solid foundation for well-being.

The therapeutic benefits of Yoga extend to reducing stress, improving cardiovascular health, boosting immunity and fostering mental well-being.

Ayurveda

Complementing Yoga is Ayurveda, the world’s oldest healing system. The emphasis of Ayurveda on holistic health, disease prevention, and individualised treatments resonates deeply with a global audience. Ayurveda’s personalised approach to wellness has gained international recognition.

Towards harnessing its full potential, a dedicated Ministry of AYUSH was set up in India in 2014 with a vision of reviving the profound knowledge of our ancient systems of medicine and ensuring their optimal development and holistic health care.

The Ministry of AYUSH has also entered into an Agreement with the World Health Organisation (WHO) to support the integration of evidence-based Traditional and Complementary Medicine in national health systems, biodiversity conservation, and the sustainability of medicinal plants.

There are good prospects for cooperation between India and Ghana in areas of complementary medicine, and we are exploring ways to strengthen this partnership.

Health

In today’s fast-paced world, where stress, sedentary lifestyles, and the relentless pursuit of quick fixes dominate our well-being, we must realise that our health is not a commodity.
Health is priceless, and there is a pressing need for comprehensive well-being. A growing trend is visible toward back-to-basics, mindfulness, and a sustainable way of life.

The Indian heritage of Yoga and Ayurveda hold the key to unlocking a healthier and more balanced world.

Prime Minister Modi has poignantly said, “India would contribute to this healthy trend with new ideas, some rooted in traditional knowledge, and others in 21st-century innovation, as a Vishwabandhu, a friend to the world, for greater global good”.

It is heartening to see that people in Ghana are increasingly embracing Yoga.

Yoga as a practice originated in India over 5,000 years ago. It is rooted in the Indus-Sarasvati civilization, with the earliest references found in the Rig Veda. Thereafter, Patanjali's Yoga Sutras, written around 400 CE, systematized the practice of yoga into eight limbs, forming the basis of modern yoga practice.

International Yoga Day is celebrated on June 21 each year, a date chosen for its significance as the summer solstice—the longest day of the year in the Northern Hemisphere. This day holds a special place in many cultures due to its astronomical importance, symbolizing light and knowledge. The idea of an International Day of Yoga was first proposed by India’s honourable Prime Minister, Narendra Modi, during his speech at the United Nations General Assembly in 2014 which received overwhelming support, and in December 2014, the United Nations proclaimed June 21 as International Yoga Day.

History and Origin: Yoga as a practice originated in India over 5,000 years ago. It is rooted in the Indus-Sarasvati civilization, with the earliest references found in the Rig Veda.  Thereafter, Patanjali's Yoga Sutras, written around 400 CE, systematized the practice of yoga into eight limbs, forming the basis of modern yoga practice. The practice spread to the West in the late 19th and early 20th centuries, gaining global popularity for its physical, mental, and spiritual benefits.

Different Schools: Through time as Yoga as a practice evolved, several methods came into being through a variety of schools, each with its own unique approach and emphasis. Some of the noteworthy schools are Hatha Yoga, which focuses on physical postures (asanas) and breathing techniques (pranayama) to prepare the body for meditation. Kundalini Yoga, aims to awaken the dormant energy (kundalini) at the base of the spine through meditation, pranayama, and asana; Ashtanga Yoga is a rigorous style of yoga involving a set sequence of postures linked by breath. The Iyengar school of Yoga, emphasizes precise alignment and the use of props to perform asanas correctly, Vinyasa Yoga is a dynamic style that links movement and breath, often referred to as "flow" yoga.

Benefits of Yoga: As is widely recognised Yoga offers numerous benefits for the mind, body, and spirit such as

- Physical Health:  Improving the  flexibility, strength, and balance; enhancing cardiovascular health; aid in weight management.
-Mental Health:  Reduces stress, anxiety, and depression; enhances mental clarity and focus.
- Emotional Well-being: Promotes relaxation, improves mood, and fosters a sense of inner peace.
- Spiritual Growth: Encourages self-awareness, mindfulness, and a deeper connection with oneself and the universe.

Presence of Yoga in India and Worldwide: Yoga has a profound presence in India, where it is deeply embedded in the cultural and spiritual fabric of the nation. It is practiced widely across the country, from urban centers to rural areas. Globally, yoga has found a significant following, with millions of practitioners in the United States, Canada, Europe, and Australia. Notably, the United States has one of the largest yoga communities outside India, with yoga studios and wellness centers thriving across the country.

Steps to Integrate Yoga into School Curricular:Integrating yoga into school curricula can have numerous benefits for students, including improved concentration, reduced stress, and better physical health. Steps to achieve this may include:

1. Curriculum Development: Create age-appropriate yoga programs that align with educational goals.
2. Teacher Training:  Provide specialized training for teachers to effectively deliver yoga instruction.
3. Resource Allocation: Ensure schools have the necessary resources, such as yoga mats and space.
4. Policy Support: Advocate for policies at the educational and governmental levels to support yoga in schools.
5. Community Engagement: Involve parents and the community to foster a supportive environment for yoga education.

Government of India's Efforts to Promote Yoga: While we reflect on Yoga and it's evolution, it is important to recognise that The Government of India under the leadership of Shri Narendra Modi has undertaken several initiatives to promote and to reignite the practice in India and internationally. Some of the key initiatives being

- the setting up of a separate Ministry of AYUSH:  to develop education, research, and propagation of indigenous alternative medicine systems, including yoga.
- Celebrating International Yoga Day on June 21 every year.
- Setting up a Yoga Certification Board:  Provides certification for yoga professionals to ensure quality and standardization.
- Wide Inclusion in Education: Encouraging the inclusion of yoga in school curricula and physical education programs.

"Yoga is the journey of the self, through the self, to the self." - The Bhagavad Gita

Preserving Yoga as an Art and Science: To preserve yoga as both an art and science, it is essential to:

1. Maintain Traditional Practices;  Honour and promote traditional yoga practices while integrating modern scientific research.
2. Encourage Research: Support scientific studies on the benefits and applications of yoga.
3. Foster Education:  Provide comprehensive yoga education that includes philosophy, anatomy, and practical application.
4. Cultural Preservation:  Protect and promote the cultural heritage of yoga through museums, archives, and cultural events.
5. Global Collaboration: Engage in international collaboration to share knowledge and best practices.

Conclusion: International Yoga Day serves as a global platform to celebrate the ancient practice of yoga and its numerous benefits. As yoga continues to gain popularity worldwide, it is crucial to preserve its traditional roots while embracing modern advancements. Through collaborative efforts, yoga can be integrated into educational systems, promoted by governments, and cherished as a valuable art and science that enhances the well-being of individuals and societies.

What is useful yoga: says the coach
Irina Dvorkina
General Practitioner
Alexandra Churkina
Hatha Yoga Instructor
Read us in VKontakte Zen
Yoga is an ancient teaching that includes various spiritual, mental and physical practices.
Every year it becomes more and more popular in modern society.
Today, for many people, yoga is an opportunity to escape from the chaotic and busy life.
It is practiced on the mat at home, in gyms and even in an Indian temple.
However, such training has contraindications.
Who will benefit from the practice and who should not?
Took it down with a yoga coach.
What is Yoga
The first thing that comes to mind when a person hears the word “yoga ” is an ascetic in a loincloth that has twisted into a difficult position.
But in fact, physical exercise is just one of the steps of a great way of self-improvement.
Initially, yoga is a philosophical school in ancient India, and therefore this doctrine tries to answer deep questions about the meaning of life and the structure of the world.
One of the conclusions is that the essence of man ’ s problems lies in the excessive anxiety of the human mind.
Which means we need to calm him down.
Where to start yoga classes
A person who studies and practices yoga is called a yogi or yogi.
From the very beginning, it is important to observe the moral and ethical standards described in the books about this doctrine.
It is necessary that a person understands what he will do and what opportunities these classes can open for him.
Then you can connect physical practices on the mat.

To start classes, you only need:
– comfortable, ventilated and warm room;
A place where no one will bother you.
– absence of irritating factors: phone, loud sounds, etc.;
– sports comfortable mat or yoga mat;
- sports or any other clothing that does not hinder your movements.
And after that, when a person is ready physically and mentally, you can try to start meditation.
Such a path, for example, is described in the main book of all who practice yoga, the Yoga Sutras by the Indian philosopher Patanjali.
Today, to a person brought up in Western culture, this may seem esoteric.
Therefore, for many in the modern world, yoga is just an unusual and interesting kind of physical education.
Only then, with a deeper immersion in the topic, a person can get something more for himself.

Benefits of Yoga
Many experts hold the position that the benefits are provided by those activities that bring pleasure.
And also those where there is an attentive and prepared teacher.
If, for example, this is an hour and a half group classes, where you constantly torment yourself and suffer from unusual exercises on the mat, and at the same time there are 30 more people in the hall and the teacher does not see you and your problems, then it is unlikely that there will be any benefit.
Yoga as gymnastics is very different.
For example:
– Ashtanga Vinyasa Yoga (the practice is powerful and quite dynamic.
A form of hatha yoga.
After such a load, you will probably get very tired and sweat well);
– Hatha yoga (it stands for Ha – sun, Tha – moon.
This is a story about the union of soul and body, the balance of energy.
Hatha includes both statics and dynamics, the pace can be slow);
– Yoga therapy (auxiliary action in certain health conditions, as a physical supplement to the recommendations of evidence-based medicine);
– women ’ s yoga;
Yoga for pregnant women;
Children's Yoga.
There are many other practices.
Naturally, like any physical education, yoga can be both useful and traumatic.
It is very important to choose the direction that is right for you.
Therefore, before classes, be sure to consult with the teacher and doctor.

How useful yoga is for children
1.
Improving physical health: Practicing asanas (postures) and breathing exercises improves muscle flexibility and strength.
Classes also support the proper development of the musculoskeletal system of the child.
2.
Developing concentration and improving learning skills: Yoga helps improve concentration and memory in children.
This has a positive effect on the learning process.
Children who practice yoga are often better at focusing on lessons.
3.
Managing Emotions and Stress: Simple meditation practices and breathing exercises can give children tools to relax, relieve nervous tension, and consciously relate to emotions.
What are the contraindications for yoga classes
First of all, you can not do yoga if a person has any diseases in the acute phase:
– gastritis;
– ulcers;
– heart disease;
– gallstones;
open wounds;
any tumors.
A large list of contraindications in pregnant women and young mothers.
That is why it is very important to warn the teacher about the features of your body before starting the practice.
If you have injuries and you are just starting to practice, it is also better to fully recover from the disease, and only then start yoga.
Are there any alternatives for those who want but can ’ t do it?
It all depends on your purpose.
If you just want to improve your physical well-being, then with a competent approach, yoga helps to solve many health problems.
In yoga itself, there are many different and beautiful directions, for example, yoga therapy.
In it, an individual set of exercises for working with the body is selected for a person.

And if your goal is peace of mind and harmony in the soul, then breathing exercises are perfect.
In it, the novice yogi sits in a comfortable position, closes his eyes and tries to focus on his breathing, without getting involved in extraneous thoughts.
Respiratory gymnastics is something that vaguely resembles real meditation.
How best to do it: by yourself or with a coach
In short: for beginners - a coach is needed to set up the technique, continuing can do on their own.
There is no single answer to this question.
There are people who really need a coach nearby.
A professional person who can be trusted to tell some features of his body so that he can suggest the right technique.
And there are those who are more comfortable to study at home on video courses.
Both options are possible.
However, it is important to consider the initial data.
If there were injuries, if there are questions about well-being, then it is more reasonable to have a reliable coach nearby.
What is the difference between yoga and fitness
Yoga is a great way.
And this path goes far beyond such concepts as fitness and physical education.
Some even believe that any other activity, such as running or dancing, can also be considered as yoga.
If it helps to solve your main tasks – to free the mind from meaningless fluctuations or to become a better body and soul, then this can be a good alternative.

Regular classes will help to get in shape, improve mood and give a lot of energy.
Yoga Alliance says that yoga is suitable for many and is a universal occupation.
It will help relieve pain, give strength and flexibility, relieve stress, improve breathing, the cardiovascular system, help lose weight and promote better circulation.

6 myths about yoga
I'm not flexible.
Often, professional yogis on social networks demonstrate the incredible flexibility of their body in various exercises.
This raises doubts about whether it is suitable for those who do not consider themselves flexible at all and have never heard of stretching.
In fact, yoga begins with light exercises that everyone is able to repeat.
Over time, they can become more difficult, and you will develop.
In addition, exercises can be replaced if some can not be repeated.

My back hurts.
Pain should not interfere with you both at work and during yoga classes.
That is why there are many different practices for almost every medical condition.
If you are worried about some disease, consult your doctor before signing up for classes, and do not forget to warn the coach so that he can choose individual exercises for you.
For example, if you have glaucoma (a disease that damages the optic nerves of the eyes), you need to avoid lowering your head below the heart, which means that you will have to change certain poses.
– explains Samantha Parker, a physiologist and certified yoga instructor.
It may be against my religious beliefs.

Yoga is often associated with Hinduism and Buddhism, but it does not require certain religious beliefs and can be practiced by everyone.
It only propagates the idea of peace and purpose, which some people identify with spirituality.
If this is not very close to you, you can find appropriate classes where instructors focus exclusively on physical aspects.
Yoga for women
According to the 2016 Yoga in America study, 72% of participants were women and 28% were men.
However, this trend is changing every year.
Yoga is a universal practice that helps everyone to improve joint mobility, range of motion and overall physical fitness.
In addition, it contributes to good posture, control of muscles and tendons.

Yoga is just a stretch.
Yoga is often about the emphasis on flexibility, because it involves a lot of stretch marks.
However, along with mobility, you build muscle and stamina.
The study, published in the journal Research Complementary and Alternative Medicine, described that a 12-week yoga program improved not only flexibility, but also cardiovascular, muscle strength, and endurance in adults.

How to be good at yoga

From Ashtanga to Bikram and Hatha yoga, there are many different types of yoga out there—each with their own benefits.

But if you’re new to this form of exercise, you might be wondering how to be good at yoga?

The first thing to do is find a class!

Most gyms and fitness centers will have yoga sessions on their timetables or you could look at attending a class at a more specialized yoga studio. Here you may find a wider choice of sessions, instructors and different types of yoga available.

The key, according to TV sports presenter and qualified yoga teacher Alexandra Legouix, is to look for a class which is suitable for beginners.

Attending an entry level class will help you get comfortable with the basics without the pressure of trying to keep up with more experienced participants or feeling intimidated by more advanced poses. If you prefer working out at home, you could also find an online yoga tutorial or use a DVD as your guide.

Yoga blocks are also good for beginners to provide support and help you work at your own level or you could try a chair yoga class for a more gentle introduction.

As Alexandra points out, you should check out the credentials of the person teaching you, as “If you are following a DVD or online class, it’s very important you choose one that is being taught by an accredited practitioner, as you are not getting the hands-on guidance which you would get in a class.”

Regular practice can lead to improvement, so it’s a good idea to commit to a few sessions per week.

Alexandra recommends three times a week "as a good way of getting into a routine, that also gives you time for rest days."

But she believes people shouldn’t feel obligated or pressured to attend a certain number of sessions.

Instead your yoga practice should fit into your lifestyle and alongside any other fitness activities you’re participating in.

And if you’re struggling for time, a quick 10-15 minute stretching or meditation session can be a great start to the day.

Do you have to be flexible to be good at yoga?

While the thought of yoga can conjure up images of super-flexible people in poses which may seem impossible, it’s encouraging to hear from the experts like Alexandra that you don’t have to be super bendy to enjoy the practice.

"You don’t have to be flexible to be good at yoga—that’s such a common myth. I never encourage people straightaway to try and touch the floor with their legs straight."

Alexandra advises building up gradually and easing your way into poses; increasing blood flow and warming up your muscles makes you more comfortable in the poses and increases flexibility.

How can yoga help your core?

Yoga is very core-focused—if you don’t control your core, you won’t be able to balance correctly or stay in position.

Yoga and breathwork teacher Laura Pearce said: "There are quite a few aspects of most yoga practices that help to improve core strength.

"There is the obvious balance work that wakes up proprioceptors and helps strengthen the neurological connections that help us 'access our core' and there are the big abdominal moves in dynamic practices, namely the high-low plank combo of the Chaturanga Vinyasa sequence.

"There are also lots of intense oblique activating poses, such as side plank, half-moon, where you're facing sideways with one arm and leg lifted high, the other limbs touching the floor, and let's not forget the backbend work we do in yoga, which strengthens the lower back and glutes."

For serious core strengthening, Laura recommended Forrest Yoga who use an opening sequence of sit-ups, as well as most Power, Rocket, Ashtanga or other very dynamic practices.

As well as physical poses, the breathwork involved in yoga is also good for strengthening the core.

She added: "What a lot of people don't realise is that the diaphragm is one of our biggest and most important core muscles. The diaphragm stabilises the spine and connects to so many important deep set muscles, such as your Psoas.

“In most yoga practices, breathwork is a big portion of what we do. We work with cultivating a strong, mobile diaphragm through breathing and also literally engaging the diaphragms of the body in Uddiyana and Mula Bandha aka 'tummy and root lock'. These practices are tough, and take a long time to cultivate, but have a profound effect on our deep, deep core."

Flow yoga offers benefits beyond physical strength, including improved breathing and overall well-being, by promoting a mind-body connection and increased awareness of physical sensations and abilities.

The Benefits of Yoga and Meditation for Mind-Body Wellness

Yoga and meditation have emerged as powerful practices that promote mind-body wellness, helping individuals find inner peace, reduce stress, and improve physical health.

In this article, we will explore the numerous benefits of yoga and meditation and how they contribute to achieving a harmonious and healthy mind-body connection. By incorporating these practices into our daily lives, we can enhance our well-being and experience a greater sense of calm and vitality.

The Benefits of Yoga and Meditation for Mind-Body Wellness

1. Cultivating Mindfulness and Presence

Yoga and meditation encourage the cultivation of mindfulness and presence, allowing individuals to be fully engaged in the present moment. By focusing on the breath, sensations, and thoughts without judgment, practitioners develop a heightened sense of awareness and learn to embrace the present moment, rather than dwelling on the past or worrying about the future. This practice of mindfulness brings a sense of clarity, peace, and contentment.

2. Stress Reduction and Emotional Well-being

Both yoga and meditation are powerful tools for stress reduction and promoting emotional well-being. Engaging in yoga postures, known as asanas, helps release physical tension stored in the body and activates the relaxation response. Combined with deep breathing and meditation techniques, yoga helps calm the nervous system and reduces stress hormones, leading to a sense of calm and relaxation. Regular practice can also enhance emotional resilience and improve overall mental health.

3. Improved Physical Flexibility and Strength

Yoga incorporates a wide range of physical poses that promote flexibility, strength, and balance. The practice involves stretching and elongating the muscles, improving joint mobility, and increasing overall flexibility. As individuals progress in their practice, they gradually build strength, particularly in the core muscles, contributing to better posture and overall physical stability.

4. Enhancing Mind-Body Connection

Yoga & meditation emphasize the connection between the mind and the body. Through conscious movement, individuals learn to listen to their bodies, respect their limits, and cultivate a deeper understanding of their physical sensations and abilities. This increased awareness allows practitioners to make informed choices that support their overall well-being and prevents overexertion or injury.

5. Boosting Energy and Vitality

Contrary to popular belief, yoga, and meditation can invigorate the body and boost energy levels. Through gentle movements, deep breathing, and focused attention, yoga and meditation help release tension, clear energy blockages, and activate the body's natural energy centers. As a result, individuals often experience increased vitality, improved sleep patterns, and a greater sense of overall well-being.

6. Improved Cognitive Function and Mental Clarity

Regular yoga & meditation practices have been linked to improved cognitive function and mental clarity. The combination of physical movement, breath awareness, and mindfulness helps quiet the mind, improve concentration, and enhance mental focus. As a result, individuals often experience increased productivity, creativity, and a greater ability to handle challenges and make clear decisions.

7. Promoting Overall Health and Well-being

Yoga and meditation have a positive impact on overall physical health. The practices help regulate blood pressure, strengthen the immune system, improve digestion, and support healthy organ function. Additionally, the stress-reducing effects of these practices can have a beneficial impact on heart health, reducing the risk of cardiovascular diseases.

The benefits of yoga and meditation extend beyond physical fitness and relaxation. These practices offer a holistic approach to mind-body wellness, promoting mindfulness, reducing stress, enhancing emotional well-being, improving physical flexibility and strength, boosting energy levels, and fostering a greater sense of overall well-being.

By incorporating yoga & meditation into our daily routines, we can nurture our mind-body connection and experience the transformative effects of these ancient practices. Embrace the journey of self-discovery and embark on a path of enhanced well-being with yoga and meditation.

6 myths about yoga
I'm not flexible.
Often, professional yogis on social networks demonstrate the incredible flexibility of their body in various exercises.
This raises doubts about whether it is suitable for those who do not consider themselves flexible at all and have never heard of stretching.
In fact, yoga begins with light exercises that everyone is able to repeat.
Over time, they can become more difficult, and you will develop.
In addition, exercises can be replaced if some can not be repeated.

My back hurts.
Pain should not interfere with you both at work and during yoga classes.
That is why there are many different practices for almost every medical condition.
If you are worried about some disease, consult your doctor before signing up for classes, and do not forget to warn the coach so that he can choose individual exercises for you.
For example, if you have glaucoma (a disease that damages the optic nerves of the eyes), you need to avoid lowering your head below the heart, which means that you will have to change certain poses.
– explains Samantha Parker, a physiologist and certified yoga instructor.

Yoga is often associated with Hinduism and Buddhism, but it does not require certain religious beliefs and can be practiced by everyone.
It only propagates the idea of peace and purpose, which some people identify with spirituality.
If this is not very close to you, you can find appropriate classes where instructors focus exclusively on physical aspects.
Yoga for women

However, this trend is changing every year.
Yoga is a universal practice that helps everyone to improve joint mobility, range of motion and overall physical fitness.
In addition, it contributes to good posture, control of muscles and tendons.

Yoga is just a stretch.
Yoga is often about the emphasis on flexibility, because it involves a lot of stretch marks.
However, along with mobility, you build muscle and stamina.
The study, published in the journal Research Complementary and Alternative Medicine, described that a 12-week yoga program improved not only flexibility, but also cardiovascular, muscle strength, and endurance in adults.
