The word 'Yoga' is derived from Sanskrit which means to join or to unite, symbolising the union of mind and body. It is an ancient practice that originated in India.
Yoga is just not an exercise but a holistic approach to energise your body, strengthen your mind and beautify your soul. Practising yoga daily helps maintain a balanced metabolism, increases flexibility and muscle strength and improves blood circulation. It also offers other mental and spiritual benefits that makes us healthy, happy and satisfied.
Realising the importance and benefits, the world has started celebrating “International Yoga Day” on June 21 since 2015. The theme for this year is "Yoga at Home and Yoga with Family." due to the coronavirus pandemic.
So, let us all take a pledge to celebrate this day at our homes to spread awareness about the importance and health benefits of yoga. .

The requirement of blood is universal for saving lives. It can help patients suffering from life-threatening conditions live longer and supports complex medical and surgical procedures.
A single blood donation can help save up to three lives. Yet blood donations are prevalent in developed countries which accounts for 42% of the global blood donation.
An adequate supply of safe blood can be assured through regular donations by voluntary unpaid blood donations. To appreciate blood donors and to increase awareness, the World Health Assembly has designated June 14th as “World Blood Donor Day”

Little or no production of melanin pigment is a typical characteristic of individuals with albinism. It is an inherited disorder resulting from mutation in gene involved in the production of melanin.
Although there's no cure for albinism, people with the disorder can take steps to protect their skin and eyes and maximize their vision under medical supervision.
For increasing awareness and promoting global focus on albinism advocacy, the United Nations General Assembly adopted a resolution establishing June 13th as International Albinism Awareness Day. .

Online learning is a saviour in these testing times of such pandemic, and Turacoz adopts it very well.
