| First phase of Program for antenatal women completed |
|
|
The first phase (24 classes) of a special program to introduce yoga to economically underprivileged pregnant women was undertaken in collaboration with the Chennai Corporation Maternity Health Centre at Shenoy Nagar. An average of four hundred women were trained in simple yoga techniques to help them have a smooth pregnancy. This project met with a very good response, with the women demonstrating an eagerness and sincerity to practice. Many women who continued to practice regularly reported that they melt more energized and had less pain. Almost all the women said that they experienced a sense of lightness and were less tense emotionally. The success of this project we hope will serve as a precursor for more such projects in other zones around Chennai.
