Yoga
Some say yoga is not just an exercise regimen. Still others contend that it is not about relaxation, but it is more about control of life. It belongs to any group of Hindu discipline that promotes the unity of the person with a supreme being through a system of postures and rituals. Yoga has become primarily associated with the practice of asanas (postures) of Hatha Yoga. Hatha Yoga in its many modern variations is the style that most people actually associate with the word “yoga” today. It emphasizes the body through asana and pranayama practice. These are yoga poses which develop physical health and vitality. Hatha Yoga in this sense is practiced throughout the West for mental and physical health.
