Types of yoga
Yoga works on the level of the body, mind, emotion and energy. Whatever we do with ourself, it must be on these four levels.
Four types of yoga are:
karma yoga, yoga of action, which means involvement in any activity or work (joyful work). It’s a fisical level.
bhakti yoga, where we use the emotions (the path of devotion)
gnana yoga, where we utilize the mind and intellect
kriya (or raja) yoga, where we utilize and transform the energy (means internal action, asana practise, body & mind control are here)
Every individual is a unique combination of these four factors. Praticing all together brings best results.
