Yoga is a profound system of
holistic health, which originated in India over
5000 years ago.
The first written account of Yoga
is attributed to the Indian sage patanjali, who
codified the complete system in the second century
BC.
His Yoga Sutras remain one of India's
most important writings. The word yoga is derived
from the ancient Sanskrit root verb yuj, which
means 'to join' or 'unite'.
it signifies the union of the conscious
mind with deeper levels of the unconscious or
universal mich which ultimately results in a totally
integrated personality.
