Many people who do yoga are looking not inward but outward for a good shape．This provokesa cultural clash of the East and the West．The Indian tradition develops ways of describing the body as it is experienced，from the inside out．The Western tradition looks at the body from the outside in，and peels it back one layer at a time，and it believes only what it can see．The East treats the person；the West treats the disease．Yoga relaxes you and，by relaxing，heals．//
    When you do yoga--the deep breathing，the stretching，the movements that release muscle tension，and so on—you initiate a process that turns the fight system off and turns the relaxation response on，that has a dramatic effect on the body．The heartbeat siows，respiration decreases，blood pressure decreases．The body seizes this chance to turn on the healing mechanisms．Yogaoffers modern men and women a moment of relaxation when noise and agitation are everywhere．
