yogasite is designed for holistic and transformational experiences. It is a creation of a few friends who experienced profound changes in their lives and health after traveling the world, practicing yoga and meditation.
Our Social Work
As I write this message, there is much change and promise of progress and development around us. There are fresh faces heading our government and we expect rapid growth in all areas, as the development sector continues to do its best for bringing about social change in India. Joining hands encourages volunteers to contribute their time, skills and energies to enhance the work being carried out at the grass root level. We are happy to record that in this year since our inception, we have grown from placing a handful of volunteers/interns with partner NGOs, to forging new collaborations, partnerships and programmers in order to strengthen our volunteer programme. Young people are the strength and as set of a nation, and it is in the age bracket of 18-35 years that the maximum
number of our volunteers/interns come. The largest number of these are
postgraduates who have contributed to programmes that fitted their
specialization or abilities best. Their contribution directly impacts the lives of many with whom they interact. It is heartening to note that the ratio of
women volunteers/interns is steadily increasing.
Our mission is directed towards bringing about positive social change. Through our training workshops we influence volunteers and groups/communities within which they work, and encourage them to contribute to the development sector. By consolidating activities and expanding our collaborations, we strive to add value to the work of partner NGOs. I would like to thank all our committed volunteers, partner NGOs, supporters , trainers and the joining hands for all their hard work and dedication, in particular Spiritual Yoga Ashram (SYA) staff and my
fellow trustees. Best wishes….
Thanks & Regards,

ACTIVITIES DURING THE PERIOD 2014-15
COMMUNITY HEALTH (BLOOD DONATION CAMP)
SYA conducted blood donation camp in Noida and Haridwar in the month of April 2014.
Facts about blood needs
- Every year our nation requires about 5 Crore units of blood, out of which
only a meager 80 Lakh units of blood are available.
The gift of blood is the gift of life. There is no substitute for human blood.
Every two seconds someone needs
blood.
More than 38,000 blood donations
are needed every day.
A total of 30 million blood components are transfused each year.
The average red blood cell transfusion is approximately 3 pints.
The blood type most often requested by hospitals is Type O.
Sickle cell patients can require frequent blood transfusions throughout
their lives.
More than 1 million new people are diagnosed with cancer each year.
Many of them will need blood, sometimes daily, during their chemotherapy
treatment.
A single car accident victim can require as many as 100 units of blood
Organizing blood donation camps is the perfect way to cater to the demand of
blood. Everyone wants to contribute towards the society and save lives. SYA, as a
camp organizer, gave everyone a chance to do so. Organize these camps regularly
and bring smiles to many faces. Spiritual Yoga Ashram took an initiative to
conduct a blood donation camp in some areas like noida and Haridwar. Many
Young people, male and females also took part and happily donated blood for the
needy. This camp was conducted for a week in the month of April 2014.

Reacting to the planned International Yoga day on June 21 in the city, he said all
365 days should be yoga days. Instead of 23 yoga programmes , it would be better
to hold one big show with live telecast for the benefit of the masses, he added.

yogis, saints and sages are based on some eternal humanitarian values, which
have been influencing the world since ages. Yoga and nature cure practiced in

Sedentary lifestyle of people living in the metro cities leads to different kinds of
diseases at a very young age. This may be high blood pressure , Diabetes,
Depression, Hyper tension ,thyroid, obesity etc..but regular practice of yoga can
help to come over these disease and can help to maintain healthy life.Spiritual

FEMALE EDUCATION PROGRAMME
Female education programme conducted by SYA in various parts of UP to spread the awareness among the people specially of rural areas and to those who are below poverty line. This programme was conducted in the month of January 2015.
Female education is a catch-all term for a complex set of issues and debates
surrounding education (primary education, secondary education, tertiary
education, and health education in particular) for girls and women. It includes
areas of gender equality and access to education, and its connection to the
alleviation of poverty. Also involved are the issues of single-sex education and
religious education in that the division of education along gender lines as well as
religious teachings on education have been traditionally dominant and are still
highly relevant in contemporary discussions of educating females as a global
consideration.
