Embracing Wellness Roots: Understanding Yoga
Many wellness practices have their root in ancient cultures and practices. It’s important to understand the historical and cultural context of yoga -not just tracing its origins but respecting and acknowledging its rich philosophical and spiritual heritage. This understanding becomes crucial in today’s global context where yoga is often seen primarily as a hobby or physical exercise, potentially overshadowing its deeper dimensions. Understanding these roots is not only a matter of historical interest but also a step towards a more ethical, respectful, and holistic approach to wellness.
