Know About Yoga

Yoga - Not Just Fitness
Over the past few decades, a very common
misconception has taken root in the minds of
people. There is a belief that Yoga, is all about
fitness and exercise. An added misconception is
that Yogasanas (or Asanas) are simply body
movements and poses that are complex to perform
but make the body supple.Yes, asana or postures
do make the body supple. Just like stretching and
other forms of body movements do. But Yoga and
yogasanas are so much more than just fitness
tricks.

Yoga is a way of life. It is not a ritual to be
performed, it is a habit that one makes a part of
life. The ultimate aim of Yoga is to achieve
liberation or Moksha. But yoga has a huge impact
on our day-to-day lives.

There are many more medical benefits too.
However, there are few tested proofs that can be
stated. For example, people suffering from asthma
and bronchitis, are told to practice pranayama as
it helps to control their breathing, which
improves lung capacity. These are tested
facts. But there is no evidence to suggest that
Yoga can cure terminal diseases or act as a pain
reliever. So we must get the facts before
following any practice.
