Yoga is a union of body,
mind, and spirit. The history of yoga is long and steeped in tradition. Yoga is
an ancient system of health and fitness which originated in India. The word
yoga has its first mention in the Rig Veda, the oldest of the sacred texts.
Those that study Yoga estimate it's age to be four thousand year.
The history of Yoga can
be divided into four main periods which are the pre-classical period, classical
period, post-classical period and modern period. In the history of yoga, the
book is called the yoga sutras. The history of yoga would not have been
completed in the classical stage of yoga.
The word Yoga literally
meant the Yolk that joins something together, such as an ox to a cart. The idea
is that yoga unites all aspects of being into one.
What most people
envision being Yoga, those contortionist postures, is really only one small
aspect of a much larger field of practices. The methods of yoga includes
ethical disciplines, physical postures, breathing control and as well as
meditation.

witnessed a renaissance of yoga that caused a globalization of this ancient
tradition. Modern approaches to yoga have created a clear delineation between
the Hindu religion and the practice of yoga. Through the practice of yoga, an
individual can gain information about physical, emotional, mental and spiritual
well being.
Over the long history of
yoga, different schools have emerged, and there are numerous examples branches and
philosophies that have spawned. Ultimately, all agree on one common element the
fundamental purpose of yoga is to foster harmony in the body, mind, and
environment.
