Yoga brings myriad physical, emotional and spiritual benefits that are otherwise difficult to achieve in our current environment. As well as the physical benefits you might expect, such as improved flexibility and strength, when practiced correctly, Yoga helps a person to manage their mind effectively.
This in turn, protects against disease and helps maintain a balanced and happy state of mind. Regular practice enhances self-confidence, self-awareness and self-esteem and creates a mind capable of making the right decisions at the right time.
Yoga gives us the power to control our minds, rather than our minds and our thoughts controlling us. In a world full of constant distractions, it can be almost impossible to achieve this without Yogic practices.
Yoga is predominantly concerned with maintaining a balanced state of mind. The ultimate goal of Yoga is to attain self-enlightenment and to set the individual free from suffering.
