Yoga is a mind-body practice with origins in ancient Indian
philosophy 2000-4000 years ago. Now, it is accepted as a healthy form of
scientific exercise worldwide. Yoga is derived from a Sanskrit word “Yuj” which
means “Union” between body, mind and soul. It combines physical exercises,
breathing exercises, and mental exercises. Yoga is a journey towards perfection,
or union with the divine through self realization. It is a holistic way of life
leading to a state of complete physical, social, mental, and spiritual
well-being. Many studies have been done and found yoga therapy to be beneficial
for management of various diseases like mental stress, obesity, diabetes,
hypertension, coronary heart disease, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease,
low backache, cancer and many more. Taking into account so many therapeutic
benefits of regular yoga practice in different ailments, it is now practiced by
health care professionals along with modern medicine to prevent, reduce or
alleviate structural, physiological, emotional and spiritual pain and
suffering. It is a old-new way to healthy life and hence world peace.
