Love Yoga


Every conscious action is Yoga


Yoga is a holistic approach to life. There are permanent values in Yoga like tolerance to yourself and to others. Yoga allows you to open up for new ideas, perspectives and situations. In yoga there is no "right" or "wrong". Yoga is a lovely way of dealin with yourself and your environment to live.

Yoga unites mind, body and soul.

Regardless of whether mental or physical way to practice, you can feel the effects in all levels.    

The word yoga is derived from the Sanskrit word "yuj" which means "connect". To be connected   with the divine.    

Yoga was developed thousands of years ago through observations of the environment. It was recognized that nature affects us and our rhythm. Animals, plants and nature gave inspiration to asanas  or exercises that achieve the following results:



enhancing flexibility and strengthening musclesharmonization of body forces
calming the mind and thoughts
stimulation of energy flow
general health vitality
reduction of tension and toxins
stress reduction
inner balance and mental clarity
an awareness and thinking calming


In addition various breathing techniques, meditation techniques, diests and affirmations developed over the years.

Many yoga styles developed. Hatha - Yoga is a well-known style in the western world.




Yoga is neither a religion nor an esoteric movement.
Every person, regardless of age, origin or faith
can practice yoga.


WE ARE WHAT WE THINK.
EVERYTHING WE ARE IS CREATED BY OUR THOUGHTS.
WITH OUR THOUGHTS WE CREATE THE WORLD.
TALK OR HANDLE WITH PURE THOUGHTS,
AND HAPPINESS WILL FOLLOW YOU
LIKE A SHADOW THAT NEVER DIFFERS FROM YOU.

Buddha Siddhartha Gautama
