Yoga is an ancient practice that involves physical poses, concentration, and deep breathing.
The first mention of the word “yoga” appears in Rig Veda, a collection of ancient texts. Yoga comes from the Sanskrit word “yuj,” which means “union” or “to join.”
Yoga can be traced back to northern India over 5,000 years ago.
Indian monks spread their knowledge of yoga in the West during the late 1890s. Modern yoga teachings became widely popular in Western countries by the 1970s.
“In our uniquely human capacity of connect movement with breath and spiritual meaning, yoga is born.”
What exactly Hatha yoga actually is hasn’t changed for thousands of years. However our thinking and perception of it certainly has. Language is a powerful thing, and in different cultures the same word can have a variety of definitions. Throughout the evolution of yoga practice, the same word – Hatha – has come to mean different things too.
Popular thinking ‘in the West’ (an all-too-common expression now), is that Hatha yoga is about balancing the body and mind. ‘Ha’ represents the esoteric sun, and ‘tha’ the moon. The practice of Hatha yoga aims to join, yoke, or balance these two energies.
A yoga class described as ‘Hatha’ will typically involve a set of physical postures (yoga poses) and breathing techniques. These are typically practised more slowly and with more static posture holds than a Vinyasa flow or Ashtanga class. And indeed, that is how we describe our Hatha yoga classes on EkhartYoga.
Literally however, Hatha means ‘force’ and is more traditionally defined as ‘the yoga of force’, or ‘the means of attaining a state of yoga through force’. So Hatha yoga can be considered as anything you might do with the body, including:
asana – yoga postures (practised in any style of ‘yoga’)
pranayama – breathing techniques
mantra – chanting or reciting
mudra – hand gestures
shatkriyas and shatkarmas – cleansing techniques
types of visualisation.
Mark Singleton – author of ‘Yoga Body’, and a Senior Research Fellow at SOAS London University – spoke at a lecture I attended. He remarked; “what’s physical and what’s not is up for question. No matter what one does, isn’t it all physical?”.

Parvatasana is a part of Surya Namaskar asana. It is an ancient practice of offering prayers to the rising Sun early in the morning along with physical postures.1
Parvatasana is a Sanskrit word in which ‘Parvata’ means mountain and asana means ‘pose’ or ‘posture’. Hence, it is also called ‘mountain pose’ because the final position of the body resembles the shape of a mountain.1
Just like the strong nature of the mountains, this mountain pose yoga brings the qualities of strength, stability and persistence to our body.2
Parvatasana has two major variations:
Seated Parvatasana (seated mountain pose) is a seated upward stretching pose. It helps to straighten the spine and back of the body by stretching them in the upward direction.2
Inverted Parvatasana is the simplest form of inverted posture. It stretches the legs and arms downward, placing the head below the heart. It helps boost the circulatory system as the arms and legs are fully extended.

Vrikshasana
Vrikshasana is a Yoga asana; it derives its name from the Sanskrit word ‘Vriksha’ which means tree. This yoga pose involves standing on one leg with the other leg bent and the sole of the foot resting against the inner thigh of the standing leg. Since the pose resembles a tree, it is aptly named Vrikshasana. Doing this asana has various health benefits, like improved balance, enhanced flexibility, improved posture, mental clarity, and many more. Anyone thinking of making a foray into yoga can begin with this relatively easy-to-do pose.

Sunrise is often symbolized as the triumph of light over darkness, a metaphor deeply ingrained in various cultures and philosophies. It signifies a new beginning, a chance to start afresh, thus holding psychological significance. Also sunrise symbolizes hope and new beginnings. It reminds us that after every dark night, there is a bright day. It’s a time to start fresh, with renewed energy and optimism.
