What is Yoga?

 

Yoga is a coming back to yourself from the whirlwind of a fast pace life. As there are many styles of dance, there are many styles of yoga.

Yoga originally meant unite, join or connect and is any philosophy or action that brings about unity of the multi layers of our existence.

Yoga can be a way of life and is the oldest discipline in existence- about 5000 years old.

As one becomes centred in a yoga pose (asana) one finds they become centred in other areas of their life.

Yoga is adapted for any age or ability, the very young to the very senior, the weak and frail to the very fit, pregnancy, those with ME, MS and other physical, psychological or emotional dis-ease.

Asanas are postures that rebalance body and mind, stretch the muscles releasing tension, toxins and trapped energies. They give your body definition and improve posture, leaving one more supple with a positive energy.

Yoga is an integral part of many stress management programmes and helps develop self awareness which is a preventative for much disease and malfunction.

Yoga ethics are of non violence, non stealing, non greed, truthfulness, purity, practice and study, contentment, self realisation and discipline.
