Yoga and MudrasThe word yoga means "union" in Sanskrit, the language of ancient India
where yoga originated. We can think of the union occurring between the
mind, body and spirit.
What is commonly referred to as "yoga" can be more accurately described by the Sanskrit word asana, which refers to the practice of physical postures or poses. Mudras are very powerful. If you practice these mudras regularly you can see the wonderful health benefits.
