Synopsis

This book explores the modern postural yoga practice from the unique perspective of yoga practitioners. Yoga evolved around 150 years ago during the interaction of Western individuals interested in Eastern, i.c. Indian religions. Western individuals reformed the spiritual almost God-like yoga practice into a reflexive practice to calm your so-called 'monkey mind' through a mind-body-spirit paradigm. 
20th-century sociologists yzed increasing rationality within new modernity. This increase of rationalization caused a new mode of thinking, social constructions and individual choices versus chances. 
Yoga became a great tool for reason, functioning as a mirror for the self, managing the body, where the individual becomes a reflexive project. Yoga revealed itself to be a powerful toolkit for a mindful and ascetic lifestyle, connecting the body to the mind through the dance of asanas and breathing techniques, promoting health and cope with a disease that caused immense popularity in scholarly study and the promotion of living a yogic healthy lifestyle.
