 ABSTRACT

Importance Of Yoga And Meditation: Yoga is a mental, spiritual and physical practice that
helps one attain inner peace. In today’s hectic world, more and more people are becoming
health conscious. In recent years Yoga has gained immense popularity not only in India but
also abroad. Today, people can choose to either learn Yoga or pursue a career in Yoga. A Yoga
instructor can be one of the most rewarding careers.

Meditation approaches have been classified in various ways. For example,

practices may be based on one or more of the following overarching approaches:

• Focused attention: The goal is to enhance concentration. Examples include breathing

meditations, mantra meditation, and candle gazing.

• Open monitoring: Rather than one focus of concentration, these approaches encourage people
to pay attention more broadly, noting what is happening with their thoughts, images, emotions,
sensations, etc. Vipassana meditation, which informed the development of Mindfulness Based
Stress Reduction (MBSR), is an example.

CREATING AWARENESS AMONG SCHOOL STUDENTS: Children and teenagers are

constantly developing and the changes they experience affect their bodies, minds, and
relationships with others. Yoga and meditation help them to grow healthily inside and outside.
Practicing yoga and meditation helps us to understand much better who we are, to stay in our
center, to seek balance and not to go to extremes.
