The word Yoga is derived from Sanskrit root word ‘Yuj’ meaning to unite or to join or yoking. Sage Patanjali, the author of the Yoga Sutra defined Yoga as “Yoga Chittavritti Nirodha”.

Both Ayurveda and Yoga have their origin from the Vedas, the Indian treaties of wisdom. Yoga and Ayurveda are inter-related in various aspects as both are based on Samkhya philosophy .The uniqueness of both the sciences is that both are completely natural and focus on the individual as a whole considering the status of three humors of the body (Vata, Pitta, Kapha) and of the mind (Satvik, Rajasik and Tamasik).
Yoga is the spiritual quest aiming at ultimate freedom. A person who is regularly practicing yoga postures and breathing techniques achieve health, happiness, tranquility, and knowledge. Yogasanas, Pranayamas and dhyana are the great way to improve physical and mental well being. One can practice them with comfort and privacy of home if one learns the technique under expert guidance. Aadya Ayurveda customizes the yogic postures, Pranayamas and Dhyana after deciding individual's unique mind-body constitution (tridosha and triguna). The practices help to stay healthy and expand the consciousness and to take yoga practice to a deeper level.
Yoga is a profound system of holistic health which originated in India over 5,000 years ago. It is the physical, mental, and spiritual practices or disciplines aimed at attaining a state of permanent peace. Yoga was first put into written form by Patanjali, the father of Yoga. He wrote a series of verses, or scriptures, known as Yoga Sutras, that are at the core of all Yoga practices. In Yoga Sutras, Patanjali indicates that the ultimate goal of Yoga is a state of permanent peace or Kaivalya.
