Yoga is an ancient and intricate practice deeply rooted in Indian philosophy. It originally served as a spiritual discipline but has evolved into a popular approach for enhancing physical and mental well-being. It combines physical postures, breath control, meditation, and ethical principles to enhance flexibility, strength, and mental clarity. It is renowned for its stress-reduction benefits, promoting relaxation and mindfulness.
Beyond the physical, yoga serves as a spiritual path, facilitating self-discovery and self-realization. Moreover, it acts as a cultural bridge between Eastern and Western traditions. The word “yoga” first appears in the Rig Veda, originating from the Sanskrit “yuj,” meaning “union” or “to join.” The roots of yoga trace back to ancient India, with a history spanning over 5,000 years. The “Yoga Sutras,” penned by Sage Patanjali around 200 CE, offer a foundational exposition of yoga’s principles, and it has evolved into diverse schools and practices over time.
Yoga predominantly focuses on physical postures (asanas), breathing techniques (pranayama), and meditation (dhyana), even though classical yoga encompasses more components.
