Yoga – More than just a good stretch.

In this article, we delve into the profound depths of yoga beyond its physical postures. Yoga is not merely a series of stretches; it is a comprehensive guide for living and fully experiencing life. Patanjali's Yoga Sutra, the fundamental text on yoga, introduces the eightfold path known as ashtanga, which encompasses the essence of yoga practice. We explore the eight limbs, including ethical principles (Yamas and Niyamas), physical postures (Asana), conscious breathing (Pranayama), mindfulness (Pratyahara), focused concentration (Dharana), meditation (Dhyana), and transformed awareness (Samadhi). By embracing the holistic aspects of yoga, we unlock its transformative potential and cultivate a purposeful and intentional life.
