More than 35 million Americans practice Yoga of some kind, and many more millions of Yoga practitioners live in other parts of the world. Yoga isn’t a fad. It has a history of approximately five millennia and has been around in the West for much more than a hundred years. Though ancient, it’s especially relevant to today’s hectic and stressful way of life.
By its very nature, Yoga leads you toward greater balance and relaxation. It’s the ultimate mind-body practice. A Yoga practice brings a balanced mixture of alertness and relaxation with each pose. The physical movements coordinated with the breath bring bodily and mental relaxation, and the serene mind brings further relaxation to stressed and tight muscles. What results is a welcome dose of enhanced well-being. These benefits draw millions to the practice of this ancient tradition. And indeed, Yoga has never been more important. In our hectic 24/7 way of life, loaded with opportunities for constant stimulation and accumulation of stress, Yoga brings balance to all who take the time to welcome it into their lives.
Yoga has brought health and peace of mind to millions of people, and it can do the same for you. We invite you to explore Yoga in depth with Yoga For Dummies, 4th Edition as your guide. The yogic postures are an excellent starting point, but they’re merely the outermost shell of a multilayered tradition. At its core, Yoga is a timeless answer for anyone seeking deeper meaning in life and the elusive treasures of peace and contentment.
