All About Yoga!
Make yoga part of your life
The word 'Yoga' is derived from the Sanskrit root 'Yuj', meaning 'to
join' or 'to yoke' or 'to unite'. As per Yogic scriptures the practice
of Yoga leads to the union of individual consciousness with that of the
Universal Consciousness, indicating a perfect harmony between the mind
and body.
Whether you’re a fitness buff or live with limited mobility, yoga is an
accessible, gentle form of physical activity that can increase your
flexibility and muscle tone, as well as put you in touch with your
breathing. You may know it’s “good for you,” but there’s a mountain of
scientific study on just how beneficial it can be—and the positives are
many. Yoga combines specific postures (asanas), breathing techniques
(pranayama), and meditation (dhyana) to integrate the mind and body.
It’s an ancient Indian practice that’s made its way—in various forms and
methods—into modern mainstream studios, videos, and homes around the
world.
