| S VENKATESHWARAN |

Mrs. Ananthi Kumar, a resident of Ramnagar, Nanganallur, and
a volunteer of Heartfulness, along with three others
Heartfulness trainers, has been honoured by the Chettinad
School of Pharmaceutical Sciences for dedicated service in
conducting Yoga sessions for students.
The appreciation letter, dated June 26, 2026, was presented by
the college in recognition of the team’s sincere contribution in
conducting the ‘Basics of Yoga and Practice (Theory &
Practical)’ course for B.Pharm first year – second semester
students.
According to the Heartfulness team, the programme was
carried out by four volunteers over a period of six months. The
team designed the complete course content, conducted regular
theory and practical classes, prepared and evaluated the
examinations, corrected answer papers, and guided the
students throughout the programme.
What makes the initiative more special is that the entire
programme was conducted completely free of charge. The
objective was to promote physical, mental and emotional well-
being among students through the practice of Yoga and
meditation.
In its appreciation letter, the Chettinad School of
Pharmaceutical Sciences praised the volunteers for their

dedication, punctuality, professionalism and well-organised
approach. The institution also noted that the students gave
highly positive feedback and found the Yoga sessions
beneficial and inspiring. The college further appreciated the
team’s selfless service and expressed its interest in continuing
the association in the future.
Speaking about the achievement, the Heartfulness volunteers
shared that all four trainers worked together for six months to
make the programme successful, handling everything from
content creation to teaching, conducting examinations and
paper correction as a voluntary community service.
The recognition stands as a proud moment for Mrs. Ananthi
Kumar of Nanganallur and the entire Heartfulness volunteer
team, highlighting how dedicated community service can make
a meaningful impact in the field of education and student
wellness.
