Panchayats Minister Mauvin Godinho said yoga was vital for mental and physical health, besides warding off Covid-19.
Godinho was speaking to reporters after taking part in the International Yoga Day function at Chicalim Panchayat early Monday morning.
"Yoga has always been a part of Indian culture and now, the whole world has accepted it and is practicing it for the immense benefits to the mind and body.”
“During the Covid pandemic, people have started giving importance to health aspects and yoga is the new mantra to attain a strong mental and physical health. Covid is a virus which attacks the lungs and yoga helps strengthen the lungs through many asanas and simple exercises," said Godinho.
Godinho said practising yoga even for a small duration everyday will ensure a feel good factor, besides strengthening the body.
