Modern yoga consists of a range of techniques including asanas (postures) and meditation derived from some of the philosophies, teachings and practices of the Yoga school, which is one of the six schools of traditional Hindu philosophies, and organised into a wide variety of schools and denominations. It has been described by Elizabeth de Michelis as having four types, namely: Modern Psych osomatic Yoga, as in The Yoga Institute.
Five common types of meditation are mindfulness, body scan, walking, loving-kindness, and transcendental meditation. Each type offers unique benefits like reduced anxiety, improved self-control, better self-care, and pain relief.
Chakra balancing involves channeling energy into the seven chakras to heal the energetic body beyond physical wellbeing.
The stages of yoga practice progress from mastering the body through Yama, Niyama, and Asana, to gaining control of the mind with Pranayama and Pratyahara, and finally to a deep quest to the inner soul with Dharana, Dhyana, and Samadhi.
