Know YOGA

Introduction
The word Yoga means union in Sanskrit, the language of encient India whereYoga originated. We can think of the unionoccuring between the mind, body and spirit.
What is commonly reffered to as Yoga can be more accurately discribed by the sanscrit word ASANA, which refferes the practice of physical posters or poses.
Asana is one of the eight "limbs" of yoga, the majority of which is more concerned withmental and spiritual well being than physical activity.
