The practice of yoga has been thought to date back to pre-vedic indian traditions; possibly in the Indus Valley Civilization around 3000 BCE.

Meditation has become more important than ever in today's time. Each one of us have different experiences with meditation and so will you. The ultimate goal is to connect with yourself and be at peace within. How this helps? It gives you clarity, helps your nervous system, your mind is alert and allows you to express yourself. Meditation helps to balance our right and left hemisphere of the brain. Keeping one grounded. When we are balanced, we feel whole and don't feel overwhelm. The idea of meditation is to calm our nervous system and by doing that we are stress free and able to deal with challenges of life in a calm and composed manner.
