What exactly is yoga?
Yoga is a practice and a holistic philosophy of life that originated in India. It is all about harmonising body, mind, and soul. This is achieved through a combination of physical exercises, breathing techniques, and meditation. Yoga sessions aim to promote physical, mental, emotional, and spiritual well-being.
Yoga has gained global popularity in recent decades, yet its origins extend back thousands of years to ancient Indian scriptures, especially the Vedas, written between 1500 and 500 BC. The word “yoga” derives from Sanskrit, meaning “union”, which reflects its original purpose as a spiritual practice to unify body, mind, and soul. This holistic approach is still embraced by modern yoga practitioners.
It’s important to recognise that yoga is not merely a form of physical exercise but a comprehensive approach to enhancing overall well-being. There are various paths of yoga catering to different aspects of life. Hatha yoga, known for its emphasis on physicality, includes poses (asanas), breath control (pranayama), and relaxation techniques that promote physical health. Bhakti yoga focuses on devotion and love for a higher power, expressed through chanting, singing, and gratitude. Given the many different yoga paths available, an experienced yoga instructor can provide valuable guidance and support.

What happens during a yoga session?
