Yoga is an ancient Indian philosophy and way of life, where complete harmony between our body and mind is achieved by special exercise (Asanas), breathing (Pranayama)  and meditation. Yoga is the product of thousand years of research done by rishis in ancient India. The aim of Yoga is to live a healthy living and attain self-enlightenment. Yoga means to yoke (to unite) with the source of our Being. In Yoga through practices of holding a variety of body positions or asanas, and the centering of the mind and breath in a meditative way, the practitioner increases body awareness, posture, flexibility of body and mind and calmness of spirit. 

Best of all, Yoga is apt for all, regardless of age, color, caste, creed or religion; from the healthiest to the sickest, from the richest to the poorest, from the whitest to the blackest.

Yog is certainly not just a compilation of difficult, esoteric, complex physical postures and excercises. It is a name for that simple life condition that should naturally be the state of each and every human being. Human life has two trends, yog and bhog. Following the yogic life condition leads humans to freedom from illness, towards health, inner beauty, purity, and the capable life path enables life long happiness and freedom from fear. The life path of bhog paddhati leads humans to sickness, illness, and a life of pain, sadness, conflict with internal and external environment<
