Jammu and Kashmir Deputy Chief Minister Nirmal Singh today said that various health-related issues can be solved through yoga.
He called upon people to follow the path of meditation in order to live a healthy life, free of anxiety, stress and hatred, while speaking at a workshop on 'Stress Management for Healthy Life'.
"We should practise meditation and yoga religiously as these lead us to self-introspection and also gives us positive energy which in turn leads to a healthy society, free from malice, hatred and violence," he said.

"We should follow the path of peace and mutual co-existence as taught by our 'sufis' and 'seers', especially in the present context when certain forces are trying to push us into an era of death, destruction and chaos," Singh said.
