Amway India Observes International Yoga Day: Fostering Healthy Habits for a Better Tomorrow

Bhubaneswar – In its steadfast dedication to promoting healthier lives, Amway India, one of the leading health and wellbeing companies, marked International Yoga Day by emphasizing the utmost importance of holistic health through the seamless integration of yoga and nutrition. The initiative aimed to incorporate yoga and mindful eating into the morning routine helping to set a positive tone for the rest of the day and promoting both physical and mental wellness. As part of this initiative, Amway India organized a series of physical and virtual yoga sessions, along with expert speaker programs, reaching nearly 4000 fitness enthusiasts across the country.
Speaking on the occasion, Chandra Chakraborty, Sr. Vice President, East & West, Amway Indiastated, “As an advocate for holistic health and wellbeing, we applaud the Government of India’s efforts to promote yoga globally with an emphasis on overall wellbeing. The interconnectedness between yoga and diet, especially the first meal of the day, is evident from a study on yoga practitioners in India. The study found that 65% incorporated specific foods or beverages into their diet after starting yoga. Moreover, 72.4% mentioned that yoga influenced the timing of their first meal, with 63% starting to eat earlier. Therefore, we believe that by aligning yoga practices and nutritional intake with our body’s biological clock, we can optimize our health and vitality. At Amway, we champion this approach through our philosophy of Exercise, Positive Attitude, Rest, and Nutrition, advocating for a disciplined approach to the first meal and exercise such as yoga, complemented by need-based supplementation to address nutritional gaps and help in enhancing overall health and well-being. All of this aligns with our goal to transform lives by adopting healthy habits, helping to extend health span, and fostering a healthier tomorrow.”
