Therefore, in this journal, the writer will discuss yoga, which is a prevalent form of
alternative medicine. Yoga is the art and science of healing according to yogic principles. Most
people use yoga to clear their perception, heal the body, and thus to help them remove any
obstacle that may create disease or disharmony in the body and mind (Mehta & Sharma, 2019).

restoring his health, because well as managing healthy body weight. Overall, the knowledge of
yoga will help me in advising the patient on the best healing process while using complementary
therapy.
