Notes

Hi, I saw that you were editing the article on yoga as therapy. While you've already edited, I do want you to take this training module on editing medical and psychology topics on Wikipedia.

I've gone through and summarized the content you added a little more - be careful about block quotes. While you can have them as long as there's context, we should only use them when we can't summarize the content into our own words without losing something in the process. It's also important to make sure that we're not writing persuasively, by which I mean that we avoid "if... or..." or "while..." type of statements.
