Yoga, Today, Tomorrow and Forever
Yoga and Ayurveda are closely intertwined disciplines that have been practiced for centuries in India. Ayurveda focuses on maintaining balance and harmony within the body, mind, and spirit. Similarly, yoga is a spiritual and physical practice that aims to achieve unity and balance through various postures, breathing exercises, and meditation. Yoga, derived from the Sanskrit word "yuj," means union or to join. In the context of yoga philosophy, it refers to the union of the individual self with the universal consciousness. This union encompasses the integration of body, mind, and spirit, as well as the connection between the individual and the greater whole. Through yogic practices this union is cultivated, leading to a state of harmony, balance, and interconnectedness within oneself and with the world around us. It is often said that how we flow on our mat is how we flow through life. Hop on the mat, connect with yourself through the movement of your body and breath, and bear witness to the unfolding.
