It’s that time of year again when some people flaunt complicated yoga poses. While others make promises to do the same daily with no cheat days. Yoga, which originated in India, has spread around the world as a result of its health advantages. Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi proposed an International Yoga Day to be held on June 21 during his speech to the United Nations General Assembly (UNGA) on September 27, 2014. PM Modi proposed June 21 since it is the Northern Hemisphere’s longest day of the year. Also, it has particular significance in many regions of the world. Yoga, according to Modi, represents mind-body connection, thought-action, restraint and fulfillment, man-nature harmony, and a holistic approach to health and well-being. So, since then the International Yoga Day is celebrated on June 21. Here are some Hollywood celebrities who practice Yoga.
