The native yoga paths I was part of the Vedic culture we are refer today as Hinduism but the real importance of Vedic culture seems to me that it has enabled native yoga paths to stay in the Indian subcontinent unchanged longer than they have been in other locations.

The yogic way of life includes a code of ethics, regulations, discipline and more combined with prayer and meditation. Even a discussion of the subjects helps one relief mental tensions and change attitudes.
Simple asanas help to stretch and relax the whole body and neutralize tensions. The sincere practice of yoga postures benefits all level of experience.
From the Restoration of balance, flexibility, poise, health and well being to the body, to the cultivation of mental equanimity, emotional balance and inner strength.

Muscle tightness and strain is quickly relieved and both circulation in digestion improves. Stress related symptoms like poor sleep, fatigue, muscle spasms, anxiety and in digestion are greatly relieved.
Through continued practice of yoga postures, we can have a profound effect on the inner dimensions of life, establishing deep calm concentration, emotional stability and confidence.
