Yoga is both the system of physical and meditative techniques involved on the journey and a description of the goal. Yoga is especially ideal for people that are overweight, elderly, pregnant, or all three. Yoga also promotes a feeling of clarity and serenity -- there's a reason many people who do yoga seem so relaxed and focused. Yoga is not merely a form of exercise for the body, but a path towards total harmony of body, mind and spirit. It is ancient wisdom for a healthier, happier and more peaceful way of living that ultimately leads to Self-realization, the union with the Self.
Yoga is a way of life as well as a way of moving. Many people think of it as just an extreme exercise but it is a very gentle custom designed for each individual at the exact place that person is at the moment, whether that person is an expert or a beginner. Yoga is not about physical perfection, competition or forcing yourself into painful postures. Nor is it a religion.
