Ministry of Women and Children Development launches Yoga Contest
The Ministry of Women and Child Development has launched "#YogaFor9to5", a contest to
generate awareness on the benefits of yoga at workplace for women.
A statement from the ministry said that Yoga at work helps keep the inner self calm and also
aids in achieving the perfect balance between mind and body to achieve maximum
productivity. In the build-up to the International Day of Yoga on June 21, the contest, which
closes on June 21, invites self-demonstration videos and pictures of yoga "asanas" (postures)
being practised during office hours.
The idea of this contest is to make people aware that effortless yoga asanas can help
transform their lives, especially during a hectic working day. Yoga at work helps keep the
inner self calm and also aids in achieving the perfect balance between the mind and the body
to achieve maximum productivity at work.
The contest aims to imbibe yoga in our daily lives, especially during work, adding that the
participants would be judged on the basis of creativity, originality, composition, technical
excellence, simplicity, artistic merit and visual impact.
