Expressing the feeling that yoga is an Indian tradition to keep the body and mind fit and healthy, Dr. Chaudhary said that yoga sadhana is a proper rite to engage children from childhood. This sadhana does not have an age limit and it is advisable not to do certain types of yoga in certain types of ailments. One can do yoga by following the limitations.

Yoga is one of the traditions of Indian culture that the world has accepted as beneficial. It is desirable for every family to join and keep this rich heritage alive.
