Don Bosco High School
Matunga22nd June 2015
The Primary Section of Don
Bosco High School, Matunga, celebrated Yoga Day on 22.06.15. This `day` was
celebrated in keeping with the International Yoga Day which was celebrated all
over the world on 21st June, 2015.
All the classrooms and
corridors were suitably decorated with charts, pictures and slogans on Yoga.
The Teachers explained in great detail to the children, the origin, importance
and benefits of practicing Yoga regularly. The children were shown a video of
the Surya Namaskar or the Sun salutation, and were urged to practice it daily.
They were also taught some basic asanas and pranayamas which they could
practice daily.
Finally the students sat
in meditation for some time, focusing on a single thought, and with this
exercise, this `day` was brought to an end, with the children promising to
practice Yoga on a daily basis.
