Research Topic

My final research paper is about the practice of yoga. More particularly, the paper addresses the Eastern History of the practice, its Western popularity, and its health benefits. I use several sources, ranging from popular magazine features to scientific journals, to convey the deep roots yoga has as well as the practice's modern prevalence and efficacy. When yoga swept the United States in the early twenty-first century, many skeptics thought the practice would be a fad. Its popularity and benefits, however, have proved the skeptics wrong. Yoga is here to stay, and thousands of studios, instructors, and yogis can attest to that fact. The purpose of the paper is to inform readers about how influential the practice is not only in ancient and modern societies, but also how it can benefit the medical community as a means of therapy. The paper will show readers how an ancient practice can still be highly applicable and accepted across the globe.
