Yoga : What is Yoga?

What is yoga?

If you thought that yoga was all about bending and twisting your body in odd shapes, it's time to rethink. Yoga is much more. In very simple words, giving care to your body, mind and breath is yoga. This means that the century-old practice includes yoga postures (asanas), breathing techniques (pranayamas) and meditation. Through these, the body, mind and breath come in harmony with each other and that very moment yoga happens.

Sri Sri Yoga – Your gateway to good health

Have you noticed that in the 24 hours of a day, we have time for everybody and everything, but not even a few moments to pay attention to our mind and body? At the Sri Sri Yoga Course, you will get many such moments exclusively to spend with yourself and give deep rest to both your mind and the body. The 10-hour workshop aims to achieve that harmony between the mind, body and breath and correct any imbalance in the system, which cause issues like back pain etc. A complete experience of yoga happens at Sri Sri Yoga.

Yoga has never been alien to us. It's a way of our life. We have been doing it since we were a baby!

It's now time to get back to the practice and Sri Sri Yoga can be your guide. Here, you will find something for everyone – be it a beginner in yoga to the practice or an advanced practitioner, children or adults, women or the elderly – all can benefit at the yoga courses.
