"When I consider the deeper meaning of yoga, I realize it's about a lot more than simply performing a variety of postures on a mat" - Carre Otis

Yoga is a physical, mental as well as spiritual practice which traces its roots in India. The yoga origins have been suspected to date back to Pre-Vedic Indian traditions but it is likely to have developed around the sixth and fifth centuries BC, in old India’s ascetic and Semana movements. Yoga gained prominence in the west in the twentieth century.

Yoga became popular in the 1980’s as a way of physical exercise across the western countries. However, in Indian traditions, yoga was more than just physical exercise; it had a meditative and spiritual aspect to it.

The main aim of yoga is liberation, even though the exact definition of what form this occurs relies on the philosophical or religious system within which it happens. Yoga has certain principle
meanings:

1. It is a disciplined way for reaching a goal

2. It is a method of controlling the mind and body

3. Yoga is a name of one of the methods of philosophy
