Yoga often refers to the physical postures people do for fitness and flexibility.

Physical Aspect

While modern yoga focuses on exercises, it's also about mental peace and spirituality.

Not Just Exercise

In casual speech, 'yoga' can simply mean attending a yoga class or doing yoga-related activities.

Casual Term

Yoga is rooted in Hinduism, so it carries a deep religious and philosophical significance.

Religious Roots

Hindu yoga is more than physical postures; it includes meditation and moral principles.

Beyond Postures

The goal of traditional yoga is enlightenment or 'moksha,' liberation of the soul.

Enlightenment Goal

Yoga is often highlighted for its health benefits, such as reducing stress and improving well-being.

Health Benefits

Yoga can be practiced by people of all ages and skill levels, making it an inclusive term.

Accessible Activity

Yoga is a holistic practice that aids in emotional as well as physical health.

 And that's what made me go to the gym. And I focused my type-A personality on going to all the exercise classes at the gym. I tried everything. I went to kickbox, dance, yoga, step class, and at first it was really hard.
