The word Yoga means "union." First union with oneself, the integration of all the layers and strata that make up the personal structure. And later, the conscious union of the individual with the universe that surrounds him.
Performing a Yoga session is to open a parenthesis within the busy daily life to have the opportunity to reconnect with our body, mind and spirit through postures (asanas), breathing exercises (pranayama), conscious relaxation (shavasana), practices of concentration (dharana) and finally meditation (dhyana).
