Understanding the Deep Philosophy of Yoga for Spiritual and Mental Wellness
«The ultimate goal of yoga is to achieve a state of inner peace, known as “samadhi,” through the integration of our physical, mental, and spiritual selves. This peaceful state allows us to experience a sense of happiness and contentment that transcends our everyday worries and concerns and taps into pure consciousness»

whereas
Happiness
correlates with a mental state with high gamma wave activity in the left prefrontal cortex.
