The word ‘Yoga’ is derived from the Sanskrit root ‘Yuj’, meaning ‘to join’ or ‘to yoke’ or ‘to unite’.
Yoga is the union of body, mind & soul.
“Body” is the first tool we need in any asana practice.
Physically, asana is about the certain movement in our limbs which performed to stretch the body, makes it flexible, cures diseases, and enhances overall health.
Through asanas, we indeed aim to achieve control over the mind by stabilizing the body.
