Do send me your questions about yoga, it will be my pleasure to reply.
What is the traditional meaning of Yoga?
Word Yoga comes from ancient Indian Language Sanskrita which literally means adding or joining. Yoga means adding or joining individual self with higher self. Yoga is process, path, and goal. We are living our lives and busy in doing one or other things. Yoga is transformation of our attitude from doing to being. Yoga is mindful or conscious living where we become aware and take responsibility of each and every choice we make.
Hope this helps Marcio.
