HYDERABAD: On Saturday morning, KBR Park , one of the city’s greenest and most iconic spaces, came alive with energy as nearly 100 people unrolled their yoga mats to celebrate International Day of Yoga .
People of all age groups started arriving at the park in the morning wearing tracks and white tees that read ‘ Yoga for Harmony and Peace ’. What followed was a one display of ‘asanas’ and meditation exercises .
The session began with ‘tadasana’ and progressed through various other yoga poses, stretches, and breathing practices, culminating in the ‘suryanamaskar’. Regular practitioners that STOI spoke to shared how yoga helped them navigate different challenges in life.
Sadik, a 15-year-old, said yoga helped improve his grades. “I perform yoga twice a week. It has helped me focus more on my studies,” he says as he switches yoga asanas effortlessly.
Along with Sadik, there were several youngsters who shared their experiences of how starting yoga at a young age has had a profound impact on their lives.
For Saikirti, 24, yoga was a cure for her health problems. “I was suffering from thyroid and diabetes. I was unable to and a cure for it for the longest time,” she said. Embracing yoga offered me the elusive solution I was looking for, she said.
