Yoga
Yoga, often heralded as the science of self-realization, originated in India and has gained global recognition for its transformative impact on physical, mental, and spiritual health. In parallel, Naturopathy advocates natural healing through the judicious application of dietary choices, exercise, and lifestyle modifications. These two facets, Yoga and Naturopathy, impeccably align with AYUSH's overarching principles.
It is a mind-body practice with a 5,000-year history in ancient Indian philosophy. Various styles of yoga combine physical postures, breathing exercises, and meditation or relaxation.
In Sanskrit, the word "yoga" means "to yoke" or "to unite." Yoga is a practice that aims to create union between body, mind, and spirit. It is also a practice that can help us to connect with our inner selves and with the world around us.
Yoga has many benefits, both physical and mental. Physically, yoga can help to improve flexibility, strength, balance, and coordination. It can also help to reduce stress, improve sleep quality, and boost the immune system. Mentally, yoga can help to reduce anxiety and depression, improve mood, and increase focus and concentration.
