About
Yoga is widely practiced as a way to plug physical, psychological, and spiritual well-being. Through systematic practice of Yoga, the efficacy of yoga for functioning in healthy individuals and people experiencing illness or pain has been exponentially positive.
VJIT through the practice of Yoga proposes an analog between the physical, psychological, and spiritual effects of the practice among our students and staff. Physical systems activated through yoga practice ensures overall fitness and the psychological benefits include enhanced coping, self-efficacy, and positive mood, while the spiritual mechanisms improve acceptance and mindful awareness. VJIT encourages yoga’s influence on students to establish the efficacy of yoga for good health and to know how posture, breath, and meditative activity affect the body, mind, and spirit.
VJIT believes that practicing Yoga can build up a healthy lifestyle. Students are subjected to pressure, which leaves them stressed and with no time to relax. Hence yoga is integrated into our regular curriculum, as it shall provide a holistic development among our students. We collaborate with Heartfulness Meditation to conduct weekly sessions to all are faculty and students. Every year International Yoga Day is Celebrated on 21st June at VJIT. The first-year students are introduced to positive practices of Yoga during the Orientation Programme. The faculty are also given yoga sessions to maintain good health.
