Abstract
In the modern age, people have become a machine working from the morning till sunset; almost all sections of the population have become mechanical machines. Student Community (School Student, college Student, University Student) are no exceptions to this. Now a day’s student’s life are stuck between school, college, exams, sports, tuitions and many other activities, which result in their mental and health disorders. In the modern age student’s life revolves around academic activities, assignment, to score good grades in the examination, performing better at the academic institute and a lot of their hectic activities. They don’t get much time for themselves or to relax their mind. To get first in the race of life, they lack somewhere behind and alleviate more and more stress for themselves. The marathon of sitting from morning to evening throughout their school time makes their body rigid, hard and stiff. Most of the student lacks the much needed flexibility in their physical body. The hardness and rigidness of their body, naturally affect their mind, which in turn affect their studies. To attain a flexible body and healthy mind, Yoga practice is indispensable one. For completely healthy bodily function Yoga has great importance. Yoga can help student community in many ways. It helps to attain perfect equilibrium and harmony for body and mind, strengthens internal organs, promotes self-healing, removes negative blocks from the mind and toxins from the body, enhances personal power, increases self-awareness, and helps to attain focus and concentration. In this regard, Academic Institution as well as Academic Library plays a very important role to promote Yoga in student community.
