Yoga is a group of physical, mental, and spiritual practices or disciplines which originated in ancient India and aim to control (yoke) and still the mind, recognizing a detached witness-consciousness untouched by the mind (Chitta) and mundane suffering (Duḥkha). There is a wide variety of schools of yoga, practices, and goals in Hinduism, Buddhism, and Jainism,and traditional and modern yoga is practiced worldwide.
My favorite hobby is yoga because it is a relaxing way to manage stress and become more energized. Every position modeled in yoga can be performed indoors or outdoors and has improved my health and mood. My favorite form of yoga is power yoga.
