Put Some Fun in Your Exercise

According to the Yogis, the best kind of exercise is the one that calls the mind into play like games or sports or work.

In the early days of human existence, there was no need for formal instruction to engage in physical exercise. Early humans had to engage in a variety of tasks in order to live simply and comfortably. These tasks included hunting for food, preparing it, raising crops, building houses, gathering fuel, and numerous other activities.

However, as we began to establish civilizations, we began to delegate tasks to others and focus on one specific activity. As a result, many of us today engage in very little physical work.
