“…It's outrageous because without partnership and cooperation, it is impossible to organize any sports or physical culture activities, and many leading scientists in the field are working on improving and maintaining health through physical culture (Krucevich, 1999;Nosko et al, 2010;Harkusha, 2014). In addition, the terms "education", "health", and "physical culture" are logically related (Goncharova et al, 2020;Ivashchenko et al, 2021;Govindasamy et al, 2022). Some respondents also pointed out that there is no correlation between physical culture, sport and SDGs 6, 7, 8, 9; but the dependence of the health of every athlete, as well as of any person, on sanitation and water quality is undeniable (Donnelly et al, 2016;Tsyhura (Usmanova), 2018;Chamberlain et al, 2019); as well as the dependence of the sports industry on the state of the economy, energy resources and innovative technologies (Thomas & Grant 2014;Erdmann et al, 2022;Wilby et al, 2023).…”

“…An alternate management method like yoga practices which includes posture (asana), breathing exercise (Pranayama) and concentration (meditation) techniques has already been known to improve the physical, physiological and psychological wellbeing to efficiently manage negative emotions like anxiety and depression (Govindasamy et al, 2023;Jagadeesan et al, 2022;Ravi et al, 2022;Venugopal et al, 2020). Meditation is well known to influence the immune markers against virus and also inhibits inflammatory markers thus improving the immunity (Govindasamy et al, 2022;Moorthy et al, 2022). "OM" chanting during meditation is found to relieve the stress conditions in earlier studies (Amin et al, 2016;Harne & Hiwale, 2018;Rajagopalan et al, 2022).…”
