Therefore, ancient Indian yogis observed, imitated and experienced animal gestures, and created a series of physical and mental exercise systems, namely postures. These postures have been tempered for more than 5,000 years. Yoga has taught people healing methods and benefited people from generation to generation.
Thousands of years ago, in India, in order to pursue the highest state of harmony between man and nature, monks often meditated in seclusion in the virgin forest. After a long time in simple living, monks realized many natural laws from observing creatures, and then verified them on people from the living laws of creatures, and gradually perceived the subtle changes inside the body.
Therefore, human beings know how to talk to their own bodies, so as to know how to explore their bodies, start to maintain and regulate their health, and treat diseases and injuries.
After thousands of years of research and induction, a set of theoretical integrity, exact and practical fitness system has gradually evolved, which is yoga. Archaeologists unearthed a well-preserved pottery in the Indus Valley, depicting the meditation form of yoga figures. This pottery has a history of at least 5000 years, which shows that the history of yoga can be traced back to longer.
