Introduction
Yoga's origin can be traced back to more than 5,000 years ago, but some researchers believe that yoga may be up to 10,000 years old. The word 'Yoga' first appeared in the oldest sacred texts, the Rig Veda, and is derived from the Sanskrit root Yuj
which means to unite.
Yoga is primarily a spiritual discipline that focuses on subtle science, on achieving harmony between the mind and the body of the individual. According to the yoga scriptures, the practice of yoga leads an individual to a union of consciousness with that of universal consciousness. It eventually leads to a great harmony between the human mind and body, man and nature.
The Vedas is a series of texts comprising songs, mantras, and practices used by the Vedic priests, the Brahmans. Yoga was slowly refined and developed by the Brahman and Rishis (mystical seers) who documented their practice and belief in the Upanishads, a vast work containing more than 200 scriptures.
According to modern philosophers, anything in the world is merely a reflection of the same quantum firmament. One who experiences this oneness of life is considered being in yoga and is referred to as 'Yogi,' having achieved a condition of liberation referred to as Mukti, Nirvana, or Moksha. So the goal of yoga is self-realization, to overcome all kinds of sufferings leading to 'The State of Liberation’ (Moksha) or 'Freedom' (Kaivalya).
And yoga is not just for spiritual progress, it provides multiple health advantages as well, such as enhancing endurance, reducing depression, and improving overall wellness and fitness. It's a wonderful mind-body practice that encourages relaxation when you practice linking breathwork (Pranayama) to poses (Asanas). In addition, a recent study has also related the benefits of all types of yoga to enhanced bone density and better sleep quality.
As yoga has grown into mainstream popularity, many styles and variations have emerged in the wellness space. This centuries-old Eastern philosophy is now widely practiced and taught by people of all ages, sizes, and backgrounds.
There are 10 primary types of yoga. With so many different types, it may be a little difficult to determine which type is appropriate for you. But remember that there's no right or wrong—just that one might not be right for you at this moment.
You’ve to ask yourself what's important to you in your yoga practice: Are you searching for a sweaty, intense practice? Or are you searching for a more meditative, gentler practice that looks more appealing?
Like any sort of exercise, choose something you want to do; Bikram or Iyengar will attract you if you're a detailed person. If you're more of a free spirit, Vinyasa or Aerial yoga could be fun.
I've made a complete series on all 10 types of yoga. This is Power Yoga; others are also available!
So, What is Power Yoga?
Power Yoga emerged in the 90s with the simultaneous discovery by two students of K. Pattabhi Jois, and similar types led by other yoga practitioners, including Rocket Yoga by Larry Schultz. Beryl Bender Birch developed what is termed Power Yoga
in 1995.
Power Yoga is popular and athletic; it’s the very essence of modern yoga. It's worth knowing Power Yoga, but even though it's one of the most popular types of yoga in the United States, it can be challenging to identify, because it is known by several names. Other names of Power Yoga are: Power Vinyasa Yoga, Power Flow, Hot Power Yoga, and Baptiste Power Yoga.
The discipline of Hatha Yoga includes different styles and degrees of intensity. Vinyasa Yoga is a more general term for dynamic and flowing yoga practice, which often has numerous varying degrees of intensity within the style. Power Yoga points mainly to the degree of physical intensity; it is an intense practice that can be referred to as a workout.
Power Yoga is used to define a rigorous, fitness-based approach to Vinyasa Yoga. While many find Power Yoga to be a simplistic Gym Yoga,
this form of yoga practice was originally partly based on the athleticism of Ashtanga, with several Vinyasas (a series of sequential poses) which allow each practitioner the freedom to perform any
