The root of the word "Shareer" comes from the Sanskrit verb "Shri" (शृ), which means "to decay" or "to waste away." Shareer has in built impermanent and perishable properties, which is a natural phenomena. In Yoga and Ayurveda, shareer refers to the physical body, which is seen as the vessel that houses the mind (chitta) and spirit (purusha), hence the program offers a comprehensive care in the form of Ashtanga Yoga and Hatha Yoga to promote over all well being.
