What is yoga?

It seems that everyone today is doing yoga. Is yoga actually a sport? A religion? A tradition? Opinions are divided. What is certain is that yoga is very old: many thousands of years before Christ was already practised. The word yoga comes from the Sanskrit and means something like ‘uniting’. In short, you can say that this is also the philosophy behind yoga. Yoga aims to unite everything in your body: body, mind and soul. That sounds rather blurred, but you can also see it as follows: By practising the various aspects of yoga (taking, meditating, breathing exercises), your mind rests, cares for your body and deepen awareness. Yoga gives you inner harmony and balance.
