YOGA .....A HEALTH INVESTMENT
FACE YOGA, POWER YOGA, AND EVEN HOT YOGA. THE WORLD'S OLDEST HEALTH AND FITNESS SYSTEM IS GETTING REMIXED WITH FUSION MOVES AND IS HIT THE WORLD OVER.

Nature's greatest contribution to the world is YOGA. And in this new age of fitness, the ancient science of YOGA has kept pace with time with its new and unique avatars like Dance Yoga, Face Yoga, Power Yoga and, believe it or not Hot Yoga.
Attempting to combine the best of both worlds, these variants are breathing new life into an otherwise commonplace and all-too-familiar milieu of the world's oldest dicipline. Among the latest of entrants to the new age YOGA scene is facial or Face Yoga, which has literally converted botox believers into Yoga disciples. Face Yoga is now being touted as a way to attain the fountain of youth ( at least when it comes to the face). The methodology involves specific exercises tailor-made for the face, which involves relaxation and stress busting routines. These procedures are said to be very helpful in fighting wrinkles and thereby defying age.
World renowned practitioners like Madhavi Padhy, a former consultant in stress management and yoga for the United Nations conducts private classes world over. His fans comprise big Hollywood names like Gwyneth Paltrow, Jennifer Aniston and Victoria 'Posh' Beckham.
POWER YOGA, a rigorous workout routine modelled on the basics of yoga. This routine is also known to have made yoga populr in gyms all over the world. It's balso favorite among celebrities like Modonna. However, unlike the original, Power Yoga is focussed more on attaining strength and flexibility.
HOT YOGA, practised in a heated room, to clean toxins.
YOGA is a management system for life and it is the most holistic approach to life that everyone should come across. It works on body, mind and soul by strengthening, toning and curing from within.YOGA will have a spectacular impact on life.
From the time The Beatles took that one big step which embedded eastern spirituality in a typically western conciosness, the image of YOGA changed forever; transforming its appeal from being merely a new-fangled, exotic form of meditation to the larger, multiethinic, culturally inclusive context of a different lifestyle altogether.
With international proponents ranging from rock stars like Sting and Carlos Santana to Hollywood beauties like Eva Longoria and Nicole Kidman, YOGA has found a voice that echoed by millions across the world, choosing to take a road whose foundation stones were laid more than 2000 years ago.
Many strongly believe that in stressful times, one needs to have an outlet to relax and meditate and YOGA helps in that. It's also a health investment of sorts as it's one exercise any one can do at any age, unlike the gyms where one can't pump iron after 70.
