Yoga

 

Yoga refers to traditional physical and mental disciplines originating in India, The Sanskrit word yoga is derived from the Sanskrit root yuj, meaning to control, to yoke or to unite. Major branches of yoga include Raja Yoga, Karma Yoga, Jnana Yoga, Bhakti Yoga, and Hatha Yoga. Outside India, the term yoga is typically associated with Hatha Yoga and its asanas (postures) or as a form of exercise. Yoga asanas, breath control and curbing the mind(meditation)were first prescribed by the ancient Vedic texts thousands of years ago.

Raja Yoga, compiled in the Yoga Sutras of Patanjali, and known simply as yoga in the context of Hindu philosophy, is part of the Samkhya tradition. Many other Hindu texts discuss aspects of yoga, including the Vedas, Upanishads, the Bhagavad Gita, the Hatha Yoga Pradipika, the Shiva Samhita and various Tantras.

Therapeutic Yoga provides the injured or physically challenged client with a complete modified yoga practice, or with supported modifications, which can be incorporated into any regular yoga routine.  Yoga helps physically challenged clients to relax while strengthening their bodies and spirits, even if they are in recovery from an illness or injury.  We can also use therapeutic yoga to balance and strengthen the body equally.
