Yoga (Sanskrit, Pāli: योग, yoga) is a physical, mental, and spiritual discipline, that originated in ancient India. The goal of yoga, or of the person practicing yoga, is the attainment of a state of perfect spiritual insight and tranquility while meditating on the Hindu concept of divinity or Brahman ( or for others just the oneness with God or Source energy).
The word yoga associated with meditative practices in Hinduism, Jainism, and Buddhism. Yoga is a spiritual exercise not only for the physical body resulting in health, fitness, balance and flexibility, but it is a practice and discipline for the spiritual health, balance, tranquility and well-being of the mind.
