Yoga brings man to the natural state of tranquillity, which is equilibrium. Thus, yogic exercises have both preventative and curative value. Yogic practices help to bring natural order and balance to the neurohormones and the metabolism and improve the endocrine metabolism and thus provide fortification against stress. Yogic practices for the treatment of stress and stress-related disorders (such as hypertension, diabetes, asthma and obesity) are remarkably effective.

Yoga is the science of union with the Ultimate Being. Ayurveda is the science of living, of daily life. When yogis perform certain postures and allow certain disciplines, they open up and move energies that have accumulated and stagnated in the energy centers. When stagnant, these, energies create various ailments.
