AI Summary

This joint resolution recognizes June 21, 2025, as the International Day of Yoga in California, highlighting the ancient practice's rich history and global significance. The resolution provides context about yoga's origins in Sanskrit, derived from the word "yuj" meaning "to unite," and explains that yoga encompasses four primary paths: Bhakti (devotion), Jnana (knowledge), Raja (physical and mental discipline), and Karma (selfless action). It emphasizes yoga's widespread popularity in the United States, with approximately 36 million Americans practicing regularly, and underscores its potential health benefits, including stress reduction, improved physical strength, and potential therapeutic interventions for various health conditions. The resolution acknowledges yoga's universal appeal, transcending cultural and religious boundaries, and frames it as more than just physical exercise—presenting it as a holistic practice that promotes personal well-being, inner peace, and connection with oneself and the broader world. By officially recognizing the International Day of Yoga, California aims to raise awareness about the practice's history, teachings, and transformative potential for individuals and society.
