00:30Today we are gathered here in the UNICEF headquarters, which is United Nations peacekeeping mission
00:43in Cyprus.
00:45The significance is very close to the 10th anniversary celebration of International Day
00:51of Yoga, because if you recall, it was in 2015 that United Nations declared 21st June
00:58as International Day of Yoga.
01:00So in the run-up to this, we partnered with the UN peacekeeping mission here in Cyprus
01:06to organize this event, and the UN troops here participated in large numbers, and thanks
01:14to the Special Secretary General's representative, Mr. Colin Stewart, and our Indian officer who
01:22is posted here for this major dharampal Singh, and all the team members here who came today
01:31to celebrate it.
01:33Yoga, this year's theme, as you all know, is yoga for one earth and one health.
01:39And in this era, everybody needs something to calm down, reflect within themselves, and yoga
01:50is that tool which brings inner peace, physical well-being, and calming the mind.
01:59And so, with this theme, we partnered with UN people here, and yoga is very popular, otherwise
02:07also in Cyprus.
02:09On 21st June, we have planned for a big celebration in Lemassol.
02:14And in the run-up to this International Day of Yoga, we have partnered with various yoga clubs
02:22in Cyprus to do a curtain-raiser event, and we have done till now about 15 such events.
02:31And with UN, we had done one other event earlier in other sector.
02:35So basically, what we do is try to bring this ancient wisdom to the people of Cyprus for them
02:44to adopt it for their healthy life and well-being.
