Barefoot chick from our Yoga Stretch and Tell community group wants to know what the practice of yoga means to you, and posted this: I know most people do yoga to relax and tone their body and I think that is wonderful just of itself. But yoga [as defined in Sanskrit, the language of origin] actually means a union of mind, body, and spirit. Besides the health and physical benefits does anyone also get into the spiritual aspect of yoga, or the meditative component of clearing your mind

of thought? If you incorporate the spiritual dimension into your yoga or would like to talk about that part of the total yoga experience, I would enjoy hearing from you. Have any questions or stories about yoga that you want to share? Join our Yoga Stretch and Tell community group and join the conversation! If you don’t practice yoga, be sure to take a look at our other community groups – there’s something for everyone.
