Until the beginning of this century there was an impression that Yoga was meant only for Yogis and not for householders. Shri Yogendra, the founder of the Yoga Institute, Mumbai himself a householder yogi exploded this myth and trained thousands of men and women in the practice of Yoga. As this century is stepping into its twilight years there is a growing awareness that the family is the bedrock of personal growth. Members of the family, be they parents or children draw inspiration, strength and faith from the family as a whole. De to the craze for consumerism in the modern competitive world we often go out of the way to acquire what we think is good for the family or for the children, and in the process we may lose the most precious and priceless treasure-family ties. Yoga at Home will help us to have right perception and strengthen family bonds.
