Benefits of Yoga: "Yoga" means "Union" - specifically, the union of your physical body, mental, emotional and spiritual states. True Yoga allows you to breathe deeply and fully, as well as activating and clearing solar centres in the body through the practice of Surya Namaskara (Salute to the Sun). Regular practice will purify the physical body and the unseen energetic aspects of the body, stimulating subtle meridians and cleansing chakras.
