What is Hatha Yoga?

Hatha Yoga is one of the most popular and widely practiced forms of yoga. The term "Hatha" is derived from two Sanskrit words: "Ha," meaning sun, and "Tha," meaning moon. This symbolizes the balance of opposing forces in the body. Hatha Yoga focuses on creating harmony between body and mind through a series of physical postures, breathing techniques, and meditation practices. It is accessible to practitioners of all levels, offering a gentle yet powerful approach to overall wellness.
