AUSTRALIA: Long haul
How do you keep fit and well on a long-haul flight? Yoga, of course. Aussie airline
Qantas recently completed its first non-stop commercial flight from New York to
Sydney (a journey time of 19 hours 16 minutes in the air) with passengers and crew
exercising and doing yoga moves to keep active on the 10,000-mile-long journey.
The aircraft also adopted special lighting and menus to make the time in the air as
easy as possible and reduce jet lag for travellers. Qantas CEO Alan Joyce called it
a “significant first” for aviation. “We know ultra long-haul flights pose some extra
challenges but that’s been true every time technology has allowed us to fly further.
The research we’re doing should give us better strategies for improving comfort and
wellbeing along the way.”

UK: Cover up
The Spectator magazine is
known for its lofty political
writing, right of centre views
and weekly commentary
on notable world affairs.
However, one recent letter
to the publication posed the
key question: How can I tell
a man at yoga class to cover
up? To cut a long story short,
one middle-aged gentleman
had been wearing loose shorts that were a bit too revealing during his free-flowing
yoga classes. Agony aunt Mary Killen replied that the yoga student needed to be
tactfully tipped off in order to spare any blushes. “Enlist the help of a male friend
who...can whisper his advice at the end of the class,” she advised.

IRELAND: School
warning
An Irish bishop has warned
local schools against yoga and
mindfulness. The Bishop of
Waterford & Lismore Alphonsus
Cullinan wrote a letter to schools
in his diocese that yoga was not
suitable for school, pointing out
that it was “not of Christian origin”.
In the letter he also said it was not
suitable for a parish school setting
“especially not during religious education time”. Instead of mindfulness, the Bishop
urged teachers to encourage children to “pray the Rosary” and help them spend time
with Jesus in “adoration or in quiet meditation” in the classroom. One Waterford-based
yoga instructor was quoted by The Irish Times as saying yoga and mindfulness had been
shown to improve “physical and mental health” in school-age children.

Yoga is going from strength-to-strength in China, bringing together two of Asia’s great
rivals. The China-India Yoga College, opened last year in Kunming, has drawn thousands of
followers to its free classes. China’s irst yoga college is based in Kunming’s Yunnan Minzu
(Nationalities) University. College deputy director Lu Fang said more than 70 teachers had
been trained up and nearly 3,000 people had participated in free classes. He said more
Chinese people wanted to learn from Indian yoga masters. “They not only learn yoga
positions, but also sutras, philosophy, culture and dining habits from the Indian tutors.”

The Indian government has received over 600 proposals from scientists and academics


to conduct research under its Science and Technology of Yoga and Meditation (SATYAM)


programme. The scheme is aimed at encouraging scientiic research on the efects


of yoga and meditation on physical and mental health and on cognitive functioning


in healthy people as well as in patients with disorders. The Ministry of Science and


Technology in New Delhi will now shortlist around 25 proposals. Organisations such


as the National Institute of Mental Health and Neurosciences have submitted bids,


according to secretary Ashutosh Sharma.
