While both practices aim for mental well-being, the key difference is that yoga is a holistic practice that combines physical postures (asanas), breathing exercises (pranayama), and meditation to achieve harmony between mind and body, while meditation primarily focuses on training the mind to achieve calmness and clarity through mental focus, often with minimal physical movement; essentially, yoga is a more active practice involving the body, while meditation is more focused on the mind alone.
