It is a form of yoga in which the balance between body and mind is sought primarily by means of physical exercises (asanas), breathing exercises (pranayama) and meditation.
Regular practice ensures a holistic balance and can alleviate many common pains such as stress, insomnia, back pain, headache, high blood pressure etc.
Through Hatha Yoga we develop a balance between the strength of our muscles and the flexibility of our joints. Hatha Yoga asks us to pay attention to our breath, which helps us to stop mind-wandering and bring the consciousness to the moment of the here and now.
