Health Hygiene and Yoga

Need for education on yoga including asanas and pranayama at the higher education level has been felt since long. During their busy schedule of lectures, laboratory classes, assignments, tests, projects, and term papers students tend to neglect their health and hygiene. This not only affects their health and wellbeing but also the quality of their academic performance. Though many classic texts on Yoga are available but these usually attract a person well versed in the discipline. A lucid book on Yoga for beginners as a textbook for higher education classes is needed. Also, there is a need for a text which also addresses the overall health and hygiene in students. The book entitled ‘Health, Hygiene, and Yoga’, meet these requirements effectively. The book is based on the curriculum for course with the same title for the first year students of the undergraduate degree in engineering and technology.
