Paraguay hosts massive International Yoga Day events promoting healthy aging

Hundreds of yoga enthusiasts gathered in Asunción on the International Yoga Day celebration, observing the theme “Yoga for healthy aging.” The event featured the Common Protocol program promoted by the Indian government, and Indian ambassador Piyush Singh highlighted yoga’s role in maintaining activity, independence, and balance as people age.

In a separate celebration, the Cooperativa Popular de Electricidad organized a three‑hour open session for about 40 participants, offering yoga, Hatha yoga, integral yoga, stretching, nutrition advice and meditation. The program included workshops on healthy eating and aging, and was streamed online for broader access.
