CNN Central News & Network–ITDC India Epress/ITDC News Bhopal: Yoga classes have commenced in the Ayush department of AIIMS, and the number of participants is increasing daily. Yoga has become one of the essential activities for our lives. Today, the entire world is looking towards India because discussions on Ayurveda and Yoga have been ongoing in India since ancient times to ensure longevity and health. Today, every person is troubled by some issue,

Since the introduction of yoga in the Ayush department, the number of practitioners has increased sixfold. According to Ajay Singh, the executive director of AIIMS Bhopal, everyone should practice yoga daily as it provides us with overall health.

Yoga instructor of the Ayush department, Chanchal Suryavanshi, says, “We conduct two sessions every day, from 7 to 8 in the morning and from 11 to 12 in the afternoon,

in which not only healthy individuals but also patients suffering from various diseases, including children, elderly, and youth, are participating.” Their numbers are steadily increasing. People are doing it with great enthusiasm and are happily spreading its benefits to those around them. Anuradha Varshney, who attends yoga sessions at AIIMS, says, “I have been doing yoga for three days now, and I feel very good and light.” Another patient, Yamn Gupta, suffering from cervical spondylitis, says,

“I have been practicing yoga for a week now, and I am feeling much better.
