Yoga, a Sanskrit word for ´union´, means an experience of oneness or union with your inner being self. This union is the mind uniting with the body and breath to attain a higher level of consciousness. The integrated approach of mind and body control leads to ultimate physical health and happiness together with the achievement of mental peace and tranquility.
Asanas: Yoga asanas are the physical stretches or postures which are designed to put pressure on the glandular systems of the body, thereby increasing its efficiency and total health. The body is looked upon as the primary instrument that enables us to work and evolve in the world. Asanas come in standing, sitting, and inverted forms and are designed to improve suppleness, flexibility, and posture. They also stretch the muscles, and help to build stamina and strength in the body, as well as calming the mind.
Pranayama : Breathing exercises are designed to master the movement of prana (or life-force) within us. The practice of pranayama enhances lung capacity, oxygenating and energizing the body, and improves the circulation. Like the asanas, pranayama also calms the mind, allowing a feeling of tranquility and emotional well-being to develop over time.
Meditation techniques: Meditation allows us to become aware of how our mind works and allows us to accept ourselves. We become more single minded, our concentration improves, and we give up on habitual thought patterns, allowing us to become self-confident, open, and honest with ourselves and others.

The Five Points of Yoga
Proper Exercise, Proper Breathing, Proper Relaxation, Proper Diet, Positive Thinking & Meditation
These points promote radiant health and create a harmonious lifestyle. ... Automobile to explain these points where the body is compared to a car which requires lubrication (Proper Exercise), the battery (Proper Breathing), the radiator (Proper Relaxation), fuel (Proper Diet) and a responsible driver (Positive Thinking & Meditation
Proper Exercise – Asana
Just like a car requires lubrication, so do the joints, muscles, ligaments and tendons in our body. Regular practice of āsana (yoga posture) increases flexibility and benefits all the body systems by increasing circulation.
A yoga posture is meant to be performed slowly and consciously and held for a period of time.
The yoga āsanas provide physical as well as mental benefits.
By focussing on the health of the spine, these postures ensure the overall well-being of the body. As yoga postures are practiced with conscious breathing, relaxation and awareness, they help to develop mental control and concentration.

Proper Breathing – Pranayama
Proper breathing connects the body to its battery, the Solar Plexus where tremendous potential energy is stored. This energy is released for physical and mental rejuvenation through specific yoga breathing techniques.
Yogic breathing practices are called prāṇāyāma which means to control the prāṇā or the subtle energy in the body. Control of prāṇā leads to control of the mind.
Most people are shallow breathers and they suffer from lack of oxygen which results in fatigue and low levels of energy. Prāṇāyāma boosts energy levels through the conscious regulation of breath.

Proper Relaxation – Savasana
Proper relaxation does for the body what the radiator does for the car.
Just as heat needs to be reduced from the car engine, the effects of stress need to be released from the body and mind.
When continually over-worked, the efficiency of the body and mind diminishes. Relaxation is recharging of the body and mind to keep them functioning at an optimum level.
In yoga, three levels of relaxation are considered:
Physical relaxation: Attained by the process of auto-suggestion whereby attention is brought to individual body parts to consciously relax them.
Mental relaxation: By focussing on the breath, slowly the mind becomes calm.
Spiritual relaxation: To transcend all tensions and worries, one goes beyond the mind to experience the inner silence.
Śavāsana (corpse pose) implies complete relaxation of body, mind and soul.

Proper Diet – Vegetarian
Proper diet provides fuel for the body. The yogic diet is a lacto-vegetarian one consisting of pure, simple, natural, non-processed foods which are easily digested and promote good health. Processing, refining and over-cooking destroy the nutritional value of food.
A yogic diet considers the subtle effects of food on the mind. Food that calms the mind is incorporated in the diet and food that dulls or stimulates the mind is avoided.
Vegetarian diet is also an expression of ahimsa (non-violence), an important precept to follow for evolution to higher levels of consciousness. The yogic attitude towards food is “eat to live, not live to eat”; to eat with consideration of oneself and of the planet as a whole.

Positive Thinking & Meditation – Vedānta & Dhyāna
Just as a responsible driver is needed to control the car, positive thinking and meditation is needed to control the mind.
A positive outlook on life can be developed by learning and practicing the teachings of the philosophy of Vedānta (the end of knowledge, a description of the ultimate nature of the Truth). Regular practice of meditation brings the mind under perfect control. It purifies the intellect and the lower nature is brought under conscious control.
By transcending the mind, meditation ultimately brings about a state of lasting happiness and absolute peace.
