Yoga focuses on the healing of body and mind, and on reconnection to Spirit by blending asanas (physical postures), pranayamas (breathing techniques), mudras, bandhas, relaxation and meditation so that you are progressively led into deeper states of focus, awareness, concentration, and deep relaxation.
Yoga is a soul-centered practice and seeks to lead one closer and closer to the ultimate reality of our true nature, which is one of love and compassion. This is accomplished by combining the movement of the asanas (yogic postures) with the conscious awareness of the breath, and by using that focused state of awareness to bring about a gradual calming and balancing of both mind and body. Deep guided relaxation, breathing exercises, and basic meditation techniques guides you to experience a state of deep quiet where one can then begin to understand and tap into the vast resources of peace, strength, creativity and love that are present at the core of all human beings.
To me this is also a form of communicating with oneself and the universe. Such a meditation means listening to your higher self and acknowledging your inner self in light of all good and all there is, embracing oneness.
