Kind of, yes. In India where yoga comes from, it is more than physical exercise. Meditation and spirituality are also an important part of the practice.
I was thinking about becoming a yoga instructor but I don't know much about it. Do you? I do. The word yoga means ''listen'' in Sanskrit. It's a group of practices of both a physical and spiritual bent. Oh really? Listen....... that is interesting. I guess listen to your body?
Yoga in Indian traditions, however, is more than physical exercise; it has a meditative and spiritual core.
