Sivananda Yoga
Sivananda Yoga is a holistic approach to yoga developed by Swami Sivananda in the early 20th century. It emphasizes five principles: proper exercise, breathing, relaxation, diet, and positive thinking. The practice includes a series of asanas (postures), pranayama (breathing techniques), and meditation. Sivananda Yoga aims to promote physical health, mental clarity, and spiritual growth, integrating the body, mind, and spirit. It encourages practitioners to live a balanced lifestyle and fosters compassion and service to others. This form of yoga is accessible to all levels and is often taught in classes or retreats worldwide.
