Shree yoga practitioner
The word yoga comes from the Sanskrit
word “Yuj” meaning “union”. Developed in
ancient India, the practice of yoga aims at
uniting the body, spirit and mind.
Yoga was originally developed as a
spiritual development practice to train the
body and mind to help people become
more aware of their own nature. This is
achieved through harmonising the mind
and breath with the body through various
methods like meditation, yoga poses and
breathing exercises.
