Hatha Yoga, a foundational branch of yoga, delves into the profound philosophy of uniting opposites. “Ha” symbolizes the sun, representing active, masculine energy, while “Tha” embodies the moon, embodying receptive, feminine energy.
This ancient practice seeks to balance these forces within oneself, promoting physical and mental harmony. Rooted in the belief that a healthy body is essential for spiritual growth, Hatha Yoga employs asanas (postures) and pranayama (breath control) to cleanse and energize the body. Beyond physical benefits, the philosophy emphasizes the union of body, mind, and spirit, fostering self-awareness and inner tranquillity.
By integrating the dualities of strength and flexibility, effort and surrender, Hatha Yoga becomes a holistic path towards self-discovery, promoting overall well-being and a deeper connection with the self.
