7 Yoga Poses You Must Master To Increase Your Natural Beauty Soon
Natural Radiance? Yoga is your buddy…
What is Yoga?
Yoga is a traditional technique which focuses on our physical postures and characteristics, mentality and breathing.
According to ancient texts such as the Rig Veda, yoga’s fundamental ethics lie within our mind, body and spirit.
The History of Yoga
Yoga first originated from a Hindu phrase called “yuj,” which means togetherness and union.
This phrase dates back to 5000 years ago in some parts of Northern India.
Yoga has its emphasis on six categories based on different interests and a set of qualities. These categories include;
1. Hatha Yoga; body and soul
2. Raja Yoga; meditation and emphasis on the eight limbs
3. Karma Yoga; life without greed and hostility
4. Bhakti Yoga; acceptance and tolerance
5. Tantra Yoga; ritual or consummation
6. Jnana Yoga; knowledge and wisdom
During the 1890s, monks from India embarked on a mission to spread knowledge of yoga and are now recognized in Western Countries.
It is now practiced by one in seven adults according to surveys conducted all over the world.
The Benefits of Yoga
Yoga has the benefits of improving our flexibility and our posture, advancing the strength of our muscles and encouraging coordinated breathing.
Additionally, practising yoga boosts our cardiovascular system’s health, reduces our stress, and promotes spiritual growth and inner peace.
