yoga presentation (preview)

these are 2 paragraphs that will show up on my Yoga presentation.

What is yoga?
The word yoga means “to join or yoke together”, and it brings the body and mind together into one harmonious experience. The system of yoga is built on exercise , breathing , and mediation. Regular daily practice of all three parts of this structure produces a clear, bright mind and a strong, capable body.

Yoga and Religion
The core of yoga’s philosophy is that everything is supplied from within the individual. There is no dependence on an external figure. The common belief that Yoga derives from Hinduism is a misconception, yoga actually predates Hinduism by many centuries. The techniques of yoga have been adopted by Hinduism as well as other religions
