What is Yoga, you ask? And How Can It Help You Relieve Pain?

Yes, Yoga has become a buzz word here in the U.S., a very popular and healing activity for Americans from all walks of life. The word Yoga means union, from the Sanskrit root word Yug (to join).

It is the alignment and harmonizing of body, mind and soul that tends to leave the practitioners, the Yogis and Yoginis in a state of peace, bliss, well-being, and contentmentmore or less, depending on their situation!

So how is this bliss, peace, well-being and harmony achieved, you may ask? It is achieved through the steady, slow and repeated practice of various components of most yoga classes.

These components of the yoga classes include: Deep Relaxation (Savasana), Breathing Exercises (Pranayama), Yoga Postures (Yoga Asanas or Hatha Yoga), More Deep Relaxation (Savasanapronounced shavasana), and Meditation (Dhyana).

Ideally, each yoga class will also include information about the Yoga of Wisdom (Jnana Yogapronounced gee-anna), and the Yoga of Devotion (Bhakti Yoga). It is most effective if yoga students and practitioners take at least a few yoga classes per week or have a daily practice at home.

Stay tuned for more information about Hatha Yoga, Yoga Retreats and our upcoming DVD, Gentle Yoga.
