Abstract
The origins of all fitness techniques are actually holistic and primeval. But nowadays the challenge is to reconnect the modern fitness techniques with their bygone scientific and holistic fundamentals. Therefore, Yoga which comprises of the Panchakosha theory is globally emerging as the Holistic Fitness Method. The five sheaths form the basic anatomy of human body as per Yoga philosophy and their vitiations can be corrected through yogic practices which are intended to promote overall health and fitness. The interconnectedness and balance of these Koshas, is the key to restoring wellness at physical, emotional, intellectual, social and spiritual levels. The wider objective is to maintain an overall balance between internal and external environments, being satisfied in ones natural state of inner harmony and keeping body, mind, and spirit in the state of equipoise, solace, and bliss.
