Sadhak Anshit Yoga Classes Sciatica is becoming a household problem these days. It is a preventive condition and mostly occurs due to wrong body postures and sedentary lifestyles. Sciatica is the longest nerve in the body that stems out from the spine and travelling down to the back of each leg.

Some people have a shooting pain in one area of the leg and experience numbness in the others. 2.  The weakness of the back and the lower leg a

Yoga entails different paths and practices that help in achieving the desired results. It is very unfortunate that the commercial fitness industry is trying to use Yoga as a gimmick for materialistic gains and sales purposes. Yoga is not all about stretching and adjunct to intense physical exercises. Yoga is much more than that- Yoga is for everyday living. It is a holistic approach to healthy living. Y
