What is yoga?
The name yoga comes from an ancient Sanskrit word that means "union or one". Yoga is a science that was developed many hundreds of years ago in India to help unite man's body, mind and spirit. Its goals are physical health, mental alertness and spiritual peace. Nancy teaches Hatha Yoga, which is a comprehensive system of gentle, stress-free postures, stretches, balancing positions, breathing, relaxation, and meditation practices. Yoga postures are exercises, which promote control of muscles and balance. It's an excellent way to loosen your body and become more relaxed. Yoga exercises take little time to do. Most postures take only a minute or less.
What is meditation?
The word meditation comes from the sanskrit word "medha" which means "doing the wisdom". Meditation is a special way of finding the quiet. Place inside yourself. It helps you to be calm and peaceful. Through meditation, you learn to control your thoughts. By applying simple techniques, you will be able to focus your thoughts in one place. Therefore, your thoughts become more orderly and creative.
