Literally, yoga is a meditation movement to make peace with oneself and find peace in the Soul or Spirit to find the identity.
Doing yoga is not only about the meditation for the mind and energy but also the balance of body movements when doing yoga poses.
Yoga has a history that has not been fully resolved even though it has been studied for a century, in the historical record today says that yoga was created 5,000 years ago, but scientists believe that yoga was created much longer when the founder of Buddhism (Gautama Buddha) Yoga was divided into four historical sections, such as Vedic Yoga, Classical Yoga, Pre-classical Yoga, and Classical Yoga.
