    What is Yoga?
    So, what is yoga? The word “yoga” in
    Sanskrit literally means “to join”.
    When you think about the way we
    join the breath and movement
    together to join the body and mind it
    makes perfect sense. Yoga has been
    in practice over 5,000 years and has
    been used to combine the breath
    and physical postures to promote
    wellness both in the mind and the
    body. Yoga is also another mindful
    practice that joins our physical and
    spiritual selves to create awareness.
