Yoga

Yoga means "union" in Sanskrit and dates back over four thousand years.  Yoga views the body as a creation of the mind and spirit and uses postures, breathing techniques and exercises to establish balance among the three.  It is thought that yoga can help to relieve stress, increase flexibility and energy. According to a recent Harvard Medical School survey, 90% of Americans who have practiced yoga have found it helpful for a number of health conditions, including back or neck pain, anxiety, arthritis, depression and fatigue.
