Yoga has grown in popularity as a form of exercise and fitness training in Western countries, but it is still seen as fashionable, as shown by a Time magazine cover article on “The Power of Yoga” in April 2001. Yoga seeks to free a human being from the dualism (body-mind) conflicts that exist in all living things, as well as the impact of the gunas, universal energy characteristics that are present in all physical things, via its practices. Yoga needs to be more acknowledged by the medical profession as a complementary treatment to traditional medicine.
