The term ‘Yoga’ has been derived from the Sanskrit word, ‘Yuj’ which means union. It can be explained as the union of the mind and the body to achieve perfect harmony at the most profound level. it helps us to reach a higher level of consciousness, thought a transformation of the psychic organs.Yoga has no specific religious connotations. Its appeal is universal and is practiced by many. The Upanishads, the Mahabharata, including the Bhagavadgita, Jainism and Buddhism accept yogic practices. The ‘Yoga Sutra’ of Patanjali is the oldest text book of yoga. It was written during second century and became very popular. It developed as one of the six schools of classical Indian philosophy, often associated with the Samkhya school.

Yoga is a methodical effort to attain perfection through the control of the different elements of human nature, physical and psychical. yoga has two firms bases. They are the physical and the spiritual. On the physical side, there are asanas, kriyas, bandhs and pranayams, besides the mudras. A proper practice of these exercise prepares the body and the mind of yoga practitioner to make spiritual progress.The spiritual aspect is basically the control of the mind and self-development, but also with direct control of the inner energy, i.e., pranayam. Pranayam is one of the most important features of yoga. This is mainly the regulation of ‘breath’ when one inhales air from one part of the nose and exhales it from the other. Swami Ramdev, the famous yogi, claims that a regular practice of pranayam can prevent and cure fatal disease like cancer, heart ailments, diabetes, blood pressure, liver disorders and series gynecological problems.

Today, yoga has evolved almost as an alternative system of medicine. More and more people are learning and doing it regularly. By practicing yoga systematically they have gained a lot. Moreover it is not costly and has no side effects. One the contrary, many of the allopathic medicines like strong antibiotics, pain killers are very costly and have innumerable side effects.

The best time for a yoga schedule and pranayam is early morning. One can enjoy the fresh air, full of oxygen during this period. The surroundings are conducive for yoga and mediation as it is generally quite and peaceful in the morning. Moreover, this is the time, when mind and the body feel fresh after a sound sleep. Even doctors suggest that the morning is the best time for exercise and brisk walking.

The yoga realizes that our body has a dignity of its own, as much as the mind. Asana or posture, is a physical help from concentration. We must settle ourselves down in a convenient posture before we begin to mediate. Patanjali mentions that the posture must be firm, pleasant and easy
