This paper looks at the medieval practice of hahayoga specifically in terms of its contribution to bio-therapeutic paradigms for health and longevity. The canonical or root texts of hahayoga clearly document a complex of embodied strategies that are considered immensely important to indigenous healing practices. An outline of the yogic body and an analysis of two advanced practices called khecari mudra and kevala kumbhaka are provided to show how this specialized path to optimum health culminates in the hahayoga notion of divine body or divya deha
