The United Nations has declared June 21st International Day of Yoga. The resolution, submitted by India’s prime minister, Narendra Modi, in 2015, and supported by no fewer than 177 countries, recognizes that "yoga provides a holistic approach to health and wellbeing." 

This International Day of Yoga, join us at the Isha Institute to learn tools from the ancient science of yoga to enhance your health and overall wellbeing. As a commitment to bring wellbeing to everyone, the sessions below will be offered to the community free of cost. From each session, take home a powerful practice that is easy to learn and can be incorporated into any lifestyle. These practices each take just 5-12 minutes daily.

“The science of yoga is not just about health and fitness. It is an ultimate solution for every aspect of human existence.”

—Sadhguru
