Why You Should Experience Yoga in India

Over the last 20 years, yoga has spread from South Asia to the rest of the world and has become a popular way to exercise in almost every country. So, if every country does yoga, why should you go to India to experience it?

The answer is that yoga is simply different in India. It is hard to describe how, but we would say that the way people practice and teach yoga is more pure, organic, and spiritual in the country in which it was created.

In reality, Indian yoga is part of a complete lifestyle that includes how you treat others, what you eat, and how you respect the world around you. The purpose of the asanas, or poses, in Indian yoga, is to relax your mind and prepare it for meditation where you can search for inner peace and happiness.
