Yoga in itself is a great way to recuperate from various issues, be it psychosomatic
or physical. Its multi-dimensional techniques aid not only physical symptoms
of illnesses, but also help relieve anxiety, hypersensitivity, allergies and certain
emotional patterns of behaviour which wreak havoc on our personality. As humans
we have capacity to feel compassion, love, peace and other such higher emotions
which help bring our mind to a peaceful state and ultimate happiness. Everybody,
including special children, has the sensitivity and capacity to know what their
limitations are and how they can strengthen them with yoga techniques. Shavasana
is of great benefit. I have been taking relaxation sessions for special adults and
children with music therapy and it has worked wonders in their receptivity. They
follow the instructions for Asanas in a much better way and are more active while
doing Asanas.

I read the Yoga and Total Health, December 2017 issue for the first time. It is a
remarkable, informative and a useful guide for every man to remain in the best of
health. Yoga’s engagement with globalisation proves the fact that yoga keeps a
person healthy, both mentally and physically. Yoga must be taught in educational
institutions and workplaces alike.

‘Developing Emotions’ was a beautiful article by Smt. Hansaji, in the December
2017 issue of Yoga And Total Health. Many points inspired me - first learn to live
with other humans with love; faith leads to love; love leads to God; acceptance is
the key to a happy life; emotion is energy. Thank you Hansaji, for guiding us from
time to time. Congratulations to the team of the Institute on the completion of 99
glorious years.

I wish to convey my best wishes for the grand success of the centenary year
of The Yoga Institute. Unfortunately I won’t be able to attend the function, but I
am ever indebted to the Institute for teaching me the ABCs of yoga during my
7-Months Teacher Training Course.
