Unfortunately, discipline is lacking in Nepali society today. There can be no meditation without discipline, and yoga without wisdom is incomplete,\u201d said Prime Minister Oli. \u201cIt\u2019s not just about building muscles at the gym\u2014yoga emphasizes mental, physical, and emotional balance.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>He stressed the need for a balanced lifestyle incorporating proper diet, rest, and yoga. \u201cWe must focus on consuming pesticide-free food for true health. While doctors and hospitals are essential, we should work toward preventing illness rather than just treating it. That\u2019s what a healthy Nepal truly means.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-411472 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/radionepalonline.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2025\/06\/yoga-2.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1024\" height=\"685\" srcset=\"https:\/\/radionepalonline.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2025\/06\/yoga-2.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/radionepalonline.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2025\/06\/yoga-2-300x201.jpg 300w, https:\/\/radionepalonline.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2025\/06\/yoga-2-768x514.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/>PM Oli reiterated his earlier slogan, \u201cHealthy Nepal,\u201d saying it reflects a vision of disease prevention and holistic wellness. He added that health should go hand-in-hand with values like non-violence, truth, discipline, and happiness.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe world needs peace, not violence. If those who are armed and arrogant understood this, peace would prevail. I work with sincerity and serve the country when given the opportunity. Even when I\u2019m not in office, I maintain a pure intention,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n<p>Highlighting that yoga can be practiced at home, he advised people to keep their thoughts and actions pure. \u201cYoga is not about denying human or societal needs. We must live within societal norms and values. A healthy body leads to a happy heart\u2014and for that, yoga is essential.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>He concluded by emphasizing that instead of living carelessly and blaming external forces for poor health, people should embrace yoga and meditation as a path to a happier and healthier life.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Prime Minister Oli highlighted yoga as Nepal\u2019s contribution to global welfare, peace, and the vision of a prosperous Nepal and happy Nepalis.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":10,"featured_media":411470,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[8,3,4,76,5],"tags":[],"reporter":[],"class_list":["post-411469","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-en-cover","category-english","category-en-news","category-society","category-top-stories"],"acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/radionepalonline.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/411469"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/radionepalonline.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/radionepalonline.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/radionepalonline.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/10"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/radionepalonline.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=411469"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/radionepalonline.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/411469\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":411473,"href":"https:\/\/radionepalonline.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/411469\/revisions\/411473"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/radionepalonline.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/411470"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/radionepalonline.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=411469"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/radionepalonline.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=411469"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/radionepalonline.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=411469"},{"taxonomy":"reporter","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/radionepalonline.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/reporter?post=411469"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
