Acquired immunodeficiency syndrome (AIDS) is considered a global epidemic. It is a chronic and often life-threatening occurrence, caused by the human immunodeficiency virus (HIV). This virus damages your immune system, thus removing your body’s ability to fight disease.

HIV is predominantly a sexually transmitted infection (STI). However, it has been known to also be spread if someone comes into contact with HIV-infected blood. In addition, if a woman has AIDS and is pregnant, the virus can spread to the child before and during birth or even during breast-feeding.

There’s no cure for HIV/AIDS. Currently, there are medications available that can dramatically slow the progression of the disease, but research is ongoing in an attempt to find a cure.

Sadhguru speaks on how Yoga can improve the quality of life for HIV/AIDS patients.
