Yoga In Brief


                     Yoga is a Hindu spiritual discipline which includes the relaxation of the mind and body. It is an age old practice which is being followed centuries back by the religious practitioners. In Sanskrit Yoga means ‘union’ i.e. the union of the mind and body. Yoga is the real way to experience the spirituality of the mind, body and spirit. In Yoga the mind, body and spirit are fused to be one. It helps you to maintain a distance between various day to day tensions, struggles, sickness, etc.  It helps you to relax after a tiresome day.
Yoga, as we all know, is aimed to unite the mind, the body, and the spirit. Yoga if done in the right way can find harmony and heal itself.

What does one need while going for Yoga??

               A person just needs a Yoga mat, a bottle of water, a clean towel, a comfortable fitting dress and a relaxed mind. Yoga mats should be of a good quality otherwise one will slip and break his bones. Good mats will give you better grip.




When a person has completed all the levels of Yoga he can start a Yoga Workshop. He can set up a small room somewhere in his backyard or in the garden or anywhere where he feels it is comfortable for the instructor i.e. him and the yogis to relax without any disturbance. Yoga workshops can be conducted for different age groups like teens or the youth, pregnant ladies, elderly couples, etc. there can be separate Yoga Workshop for ladies and gents or at times there are combined as one.
Yoga Retreats are also held worldwide where one can attend Yoga classes on a mass scale. This is mainly done to attract people of all age groups to the importance of Yoga. Stress management is the main topic when one conducts a Yoga Retreat.
People who conduct Yoga for the welfare of mankind is called sevaks and their work is called Seva i.e. serving. Seva Yoga is a blessing in disguise. The joy and happiness you get by offering your love and affection to another human being becomes a blessing for you.
