Novel Corona Virus Disease (COVID-19) that originated from Wuhan in China has rapidly spanned across borders infecting people throughout the globe. This pandemic has led to a massive public reaction which aught them unawares; and to add on to all of this has been the media- doing the reporting incessantly to keep everyone informed about the pandemic situation. All this has been occurring simultaneously keeping people on the edge. Pandemics have been known to stir up the equilibrium levels of people; and being a constant state of panic has been a common consequence. Sooner or later, the Coronavirus, or the widely known COVID- 19 will end, but the bigger question that arises is- Will our lives continue to be normal as before? Or will there be a new normal? If yes, when? In such an exceptional situation, the need of the hour is to develop certain focused physical and mental health; and psychological defence strategies that prevent the occurrence of breakdowns in view of heightened panic and fear; and help in building up a stronger nation that can fight and stand strong even in the post pandemic times. One of the most underrated practices like yoga is what has come to the rescue of humanity worldwide. Yoga is practiced by more than 36 million Americans and by many millions more worldwide. A discipline that is thousands of years old, yoga has spiritual and philosophical roots.
