Today,  WHO in collaboration with the Government of India, is launching WHO
mYoga - a yoga app to help people stay active and healthy. The app is safe and
secure and does not collect any data from users. It is available for free
download on Android devices, and  Apple devices.

The app contains a collection of videos and audio files to teach and accompany
yoga practice and is an easy-to-use and free tool for both people who are trying
yoga for the first time or those who already practice yoga regularly. No special
equipment is needed, and users can learn or practice for between 3 to 45
minutes, so even busy people can use it to get active.

The app was developed by BeHe@lthy BeMobile, a joint initiative between the
World Health Organization and the International Telecommunications Union  Input
from experts around the world was organized by the WHO Traditional,
Complementary, and Integrative Medicine unit and Morarji Desai National
Institute of Yoga (the WHO collaborating centre for traditional medicine).  WHO
mYoga was created in response to the global Traditional Medicine Strategy
2014–2023, which aims to strengthen the quality, safety, and effectiveness of
Traditional and Complementary Medicine.

As highlighted in WHO’s Global Action Plan on Physical Activity 2018-2030, the
routine practice of yoga – a 5000-year-old tradition – is a valuable tool for
people of all ages to make physical activity an integral part of life and reach
the level needed to promote good health. Adults require at least 150 minutes per
week of moderate-intensity activity.

Regular physical activity is a well-established protective factor for the
prevention and treatment of many non-communicable diseases and their risk
factors, such as hypertension, overweight and obesity. Physical activity is
associated with improved mental health, prevention and delay of dementia and
improved quality of life and well-being.
