The wealth of India, Yoga is one of the greatest gifts of India to the world. Part of daily routine for the Indians of yore, today yoga has become one of the most popular systems of health and healing, all over the world. It is also a spiritual pursuit for many seekers of truth. In the modern world, western countries like America use yoga as a tool for mental, physical and spiritual upliftment .Life is full of stress as a result of existence in the fast, mechanized and competitive way of life. Moreover modernization, urbanization, materialism, competition and ever changing trends of society tend to put stress on individuals of all age groups. In the present circumstances, youth as well as children are facing difficulties in life. These difficulties are giving rise to many psychosomatic problems such as anxiety, tension, frustration and emotional upsets in day to day life. So the study of emotional life is now emerging as a descriptive science, comparable with anatomy it deals with an inter play of forces with intensities and quantities. Available tests are crude and measure chiefly the degree of dependence. But the test measures the difficult aspects of emotional maturity. As self-acceptance is an important aspect of maturity ways Wenkart, it must be preceded by acceptance from others. Emotional maturity is concerned primarily with self-control and expression. The teacher develops through a variety of experiences. For instance, the school can help the adolescents to arrange situations that will enable them to judge and evaluate their own behaviour. The school can provide a variety of supervised playground activities that permit children to free rather than rigidly prescribe art expression and help children take part in discussions in the classroom or in private conference. 1 Associate Professor, Digamber Jain (PG) College Baraut, Baghpat (U.P) 2 Assistant Teacher, P.S Belda Bujurg, Deoband Saharnapur. *Responding Author
