On Wednesday, a circular has been issued by the General Administration Department of Goa which states that the online classes will happen over a period of three days. All bureaucrats and government staff will be trained to overcome health-related challenges so that they can "perform duties with energy and valour".

It has been noted that this is a specialised programme that will help non-COVID and positive (mild or moderate) individuals. Further, it will also aid in post-infection recovery through Covid Care programmes that will boost immunity, improve lung capacity, better mental health, reduce stress and engage these individuals in yogasanas.

These sessions are a welcome move as the latest research has shown that yoga teachers and therapists have been successfully working with patients to mitigate their illness and related complexities. It has been stated by research published in standard journals that "breath control" techniques similar to Ujjayi and pranayama practices ease chronic coughing and breathlessness.
