CHICAGO: Regal Foundation Inc. and Hindi Lovers Club of Illinois celebrated the World Yoga Day at Shree Ganesh Temple of Chicago on Friday June 8.
The event was led by Acharya Prerna Arya from the Indian Consulate office, Chicago. Fifteen plus attendees enjoyed the one and half hour session from 5 pm to 6.30 pm.
The session started with simple stretches. Most of the attendees were seniors, so Prerna Ji showed very gentle though effective moves to do in our everyday life to keep us healthy. The session ended with breathing exercises and meditation. At attendees’ request, the host is planning to continue yoga classes by Prerna on regular basis at the Temple.
