Mainly, they think of the physical practice of yoga offered at a myriad of gyms and studios across the globe. But the yoga is so much more than this physical exercise!
The word ‘YOGA’ comes from the Sanskrit word ‘YUJ’ meaning ‘to unite or integrate’. Yoga is about yonking the body, the mind, and spirit through various breathing techniques, meditation and movement.
