The ancient wisdom of Ayurveda can be a powerful healing tool.
Yoga is approximately 4,000 years old and is a scientific methodology aimed at uniting the mind, body, and spirit. This bonding that occurs through yoga is said to bring about not only physical benefits, but mental benefits as well, taking the individual to a level that could not be reached by manipulating one factor alone. This unique characteristic has prompted many back pain patients to incorporate yoga as part of their treatment program.
Our Prime Minister Narendra Modi has many facets and he proved his mental strength on the 21st June and the World Yoga Day is part and parcel of the system. People were with him to mark the occasion in the past and this year also we hope there will be overwhelming response. An extravaganza called yoga reached every nook and corner of the world and it was a significant success for the movement. Even monsoon rains did not lower the spirits of the people in Mumbai.
