In an attempt to improve the psychosocial competence of students appearing for board examinations this year, the city of Ahmedabad organised a yoga camp.

Adarsh, a non-profit organization, sponsored the event.

During the psychotherapeutic camp, experts imparted various yoga techniques to release stress, such as deep breathing, visualization, progressive muscle relaxation and meditation.

Students said the camp had helped them to release physical and emotional stress.

"My tension has almost gone and my confidence has increased a lot. My fear has also gone and I can do anything what I want to do. I can also do what others can tell me and now I can challenge anybody in any field," noted Rutva Shah, a class 12 student.

Working professionals, housewives and others also participated in the camp.

"I feel really very relaxed after attending this camp. I feel like to attend the next session also so that I can reduce my stress and could concentrate more on my work besides studies. This could be very helpful in my profession and future also," Chaitali Shah, a tax consultant and final-year student of chartered accountancy.
