How Yoga Treatment Helps

Imagine an activity that increases your flexibility, strengthens your muscles, centres your thoughts, and relaxes and calms you. Yoga does all that and more!

This article is a brief review of the history and philosophy of yoga, the different types of yoga, the benefits, equipment you need to do it, where to do it, how to get started, and a whole lot more.

What is yoga?

Yoga is an ancient physical and spiritual discipline and branch of philosophy that originated in India reportedly more than 5,000 years ago. The word yoga comes from the Sanskrit word yuj, which means to yoke, join, or unite. The Iyengar school of yoga defines yuj as the "joining or integrating of all aspects of the individual - body with mind and mind with soul - to achieve a happy, balanced and useful life."

“Yoga allows you to rediscover a sense of wholeness in your life, where you do not feel like you are constantly trying to fit broken pieces together.” 

And

“Yoga is a light, which once lit, will never dim. The better your practice, the brighter the flame.”  

B.K.S. Iyengar
