Yoga
Yoga, a 5,000-year-old practice originating in India, is a holistic discipline that combines physical postures (asanas), breath control (pranayama), meditation, and ethical principles to promote overall well-being. The word "Yoga" is derived from the Sanskrit term "Yuj," meaning "to unite" or "to join," symbolizing the union of mind, body, and spirit. Yoga transcends mere physical exercise, offering tools to cultivate mindfulness, reduce stress, and achieve spiritual harmony. It is practiced worldwide, adapting to various styles and approaches while staying rooted in ancient traditions.
