It is a holistic approach to wellness that encompasses the body, mind, and spirit. Meditation, on the other hand, is a practice of focusing the mind to achieve a mentally clear and emotionally calm state.

From Hatha yoga, which focuses on the alignment of the body, to Bikram yoga, which is practiced in a heated room, to Restorative yoga, which is all about relaxation and restoration, the course covers a wide range of yoga styles. Similarly, the course explores various meditation techniques such as Mindfulness meditation, Transcendental meditation, Zen meditation, and Loving-kindness meditation. The course also covers different types of breathing exercises, including Diaphragmatic breathing, Box breathing, 4-7-8 breathing, and Lion’s breath.
