According to a United Nations statement, yoga strengthens the body, calms the mind, and fosters a heightened sense of awareness and responsibility in daily life. This mindfulness allows one to choose healthier and more sustainable lifestyles.

The United Nations declared June 21 as the International Day of Yoga in 2014 through resolution 69/131. The draft resolution was proposed by India and endorsed by a record 175 member states. Prime Minister Narendra Modi introduced the proposal during his address at the 69th session of the General Assembly.
