I was at a birthday party with my daughter today and had a conversation, with a parent about the meaning of yoga. It was a repeat of a conversation I had had with people a few days earlier. The question was basically, what do you think about the recent popularity of yoga. About the famous people getting into yoga and the spillover into the greater community.
Is Yoga an exercise or a religion or something else?
I think that people just need to practice consistently to discover what yoga is. It doesn't matter what 'style' or form of yoga, just as long as people live with awareness of what is happening around them. Focusing on the breath and the movements. I wonder what other people think? I answered a few questions from someone who was writing an article here.
