Hatha Yoga
Hatha yoga is one of the 8 limbs of Raja Yoga which is the path to enlightenment as laid out by the sage Patanjali Maharishi in his Yoga Sutras. Hatha yoga is the third limb of the path and is the practice of the asanas or postures which aim to purify the body and so too the mind. Also included within the practice are mudras (gestures), pranayama (breathing techniques), and kriyas (cleansing techniques).  Practicing hatha yoga balances the body and the mind. The word itself is made from two words representing two opposing forces; ha meaning sun and tha meaning moon; thus depicting how the practice incorporates working with opposing forces to create balance. Hatha yoga combines exertion with complete surrender and is ideal for those seeking good health and fitness.
