Yoga is now a multi-billion dollar industry all over the world. In the US, a yoga studio is as much a part of the scenery as a McDonald’s. A 2016 estimate pegged the number of yoga practitioners in the US at 36.7 million. Gwyneth Paltrow does yoga, and so does Lebron James.

There are those who still swear by the same two millennia old ideas even today. The idea of pursuing inner peace is itself a new import into yoga, as are most of the asanas or poses we consider integral to yogic practice. Our ideas of inner peace are drawn largely from modern medical ideas around psychological disorders like anxiety and stress.
