Item EFFECT OF YOGA ON AVERAGE GLUCOSE LEVEL (HbA1C) IN TYPE-II DIABETICS AND PRE-DIABETICS IN URBAN KARNATAKA(SVYASA, 2018-10-04) PRAGATI SEN; Padmasri GudaptiAim: The aim of this study is to observe the effect of IAYT on HbA1c in type-II diabetic and pre diabetic patients and its prevalence in an urban area of Karnataka. Settings and Design: This is a one arm Pre-Post Design comprised of 19 diabetes and pre-diabetes patients (Male-10, Female-9). Participant’s age are ranged from 35 to 60 years. Subjects are taken from JIGANI, Anekal, Bangalore, Karnataka, India. Methods and Material: Yoga practice is given to the pre-diabetic and diabetic participants who agreed to participate in the study for 3 months, 6 days in a week for 1 hour. Yoga module consists of asana, pranayama meditation and relaxation technique. The yoga practice module which is placed in Appendix has been prepared by AYUSH MANTRALAYAM, INDIA. Results: Glycated hemoglobin (HbA1c) showed a significant reduction (p<0.05) from 7.89±2.01 to 7.51±1.88. The effect size is 0.1 with 4.8% changes. Conclusions: The current study showed a statistically significant reduction in glycated hemoglobin (HbA1c) after the yoga intervention in persons with Diabetes and Pre-Diabetes. Yoga module developed by AYUSH MANTRALAYA helps to reduce or control HbA1c in Diabetic and Pre-Diabetic people by practicing for one hour daily on weekdays 3 months.Item IMMEDIATE EFFECT OF VAMAN DHAUTI ON SUBTLE ENERGY (AS MEASURED BY GDV) -A PRE POST CONTROL STUDY(SVYASA, 2021-09-04) Davendra Pratap Singh; Padmasri Gudapti1. Background and Introduction: The physical body is consistently throwing off waste materials through its natural mechanisms via four organs. Kidneys eliminate acid and other waste products, which come through the blood. Sweat glands remove waste materials through the skin as perspiration, which contains toxins. Liver and large intestines eliminates toxins in type of undigested food and faeces. Lungs eliminates CO2 other gases. We throw away impurities of the body through various openings by means of perspiration, urine, excretion and breathing. Yet this excretory system of the body is loaded with disease carrying poisons because of modern life style (i.e. lack of exercise, irregular or excessive food intake together with fast food, indulging in habit disorders like smoking, alcohol, etc) which ends up in physical and physiological disorders (Disorders, 2019). All the cleansing techniques are figured out just opposite to natural action of the body. To illustrate, during practice of dhauti, the practitioner controls natural force of vomiting and natural force of cough and sneeze subsequently. These techniques don't seem to be only ‘unnatural’ during this sense but also ‘unnatural’ because the techniques are voluntary performed while controlling natural and involuntary processes. Regular and steady practice of the cleansing techniques ultimately helps not only to stop diseases and keep the body and mind healthy, but also gain voluntary control over involuntary process (autonomous nervous system) of the body (Disorders, 2019). It is an instrument for the measuring energy of the normal person. The GDV (Gas Discharge Visualization) leads main effective rules it indicates a human health problem, better condition of health, stress levels, depression level, altered state of consciousness, chakra measurement, monitoring energy state, energy testing etc (K. Korotkov, 2014). 2. Objectives: The objective of this study is to find out the statistical changes in level of Stress, Energy, Balance, and Chakras in healthy persons before and after Vaman Dhauti practice though GDV. The hypothesis is that Vaman Dhauti may improve overall subtle energy pattern. 3. Material and methods: Thirty four participants both male and female, age range between 20 to 40 years were screened according to inclusion and exclusion criteria. Every participant attended the study for 2 times as member of control and experimental group. On the first day, pre-post measurement was done with intervention (Vaman Dhauti followed by Deep Relaxation Technique). On the next day again pre-post measurements were done with same participants without Vaman Dhauti, only Deep Relaxation Technique was given to them. 4. Result: Experiment group showed significant improvement in all the variables (all p-values <0.05) and most of the p-values <0.01 showing very significant improvement, except one variable sahasara ca (p-value =0.103). Whereas control group did not show any significant effect in most of the variables but showed significant improvement in variables stress (p-value =0.002), balance (p value <0.001), svadhisthana ca (p-value =0.002), anahata ca (p-value =0.019) and sahasara ca (p value =0.046). 5. Conclusion: The results of present study demonstrated that there was significant improvement in the participants because of practice of Vaman dhauti followed by DRT in all of the variables except one i.e. sahasara ca. Findings of the study suggested that Vaman Dhauti followed by relaxation can improve energy field of digestive organs, chakra energy and alignment and reduce stress. Also, there was significant improvement in some of the variables in the participants when only DRT practiced.
