Now take a deep breathe and relax…

It is that time of the week again for the #steemcameroon contest international or national day commemoration and today I’m going to be raising awareness on the International Day of Yoga which I’ll be giving you the basic information following the guidelines of this contest so as last time stay tuned and let’s learn together.

What do you know about the day?

Yoga is an exercise which originated from India about 5000 years ago. It was then popular in western regions. This exercise aims at connecting the body, soul and mind and also serve as a way to reduce stress, anxiety and high blood pressure in some cases. In some countries, it is recommended to pregnant women especially at their late stages of pregnancy to keep them in shape and in health both spiritually and mentally and in 90% cases this works wonders.

Yoga day is celebrated on the 21st of June as proposed by Prime Minister Narendra Modi on September 27, 2014 in a UN assembly and on June 21st 2015 the first yoga day was celebrated world wide and it was recorded that they practiced over 21 yoga poses for 3 hours.

How do you or your country or your organization celebrate the day?

Yoga is celebrated today by taking up your yoga mats and going outside or find a very comfortable area of your house and perform the various yoga poses of the day. That’s why it was voted to be put on this day because it is a summer solstice and most countries (177 that voted) will be in the summer so they can enjoy the sunshine and perform their yoga poses in commemoration of this day.

What impact does your community gain during and after the commemoration?

By practicing yoga poses, you as a community not only grow in health and spirit but also in the spirit of unity as you get to spend time together with your friends and family, your neighbors, and other officials of that community, you get to share in the spirit of togetherness. Personally you also grow your health as yoga poses relaxes your muscles, your nerves and also your mind.

What issue or concern will you recommend to be commemorated this week and on what date?

The day I want to be commemorated this week is international kissing day which happens tomorrow. So for all my couples in the house and friends who want to show their love by kissing tomorrow is your day and I’d like to see photos of kisses.

That ends my blog today see you later bye 👋 and I’m inviting @wintia23, @newtonb and @chiabertrand.
