An ancient physical, mental and spiritual practice designed as a path to spiritual enlightenment, yoga, has found huge popularity in the recent times as a form of exercise and tool for stress management too. Maharishi Patanjali has defined Yogasana as ‘Sthiram Sukham Asanam’, a meditative state in which one feels comfortable, stable and at ease.
