    Background In today's world, yoga is defined as a type of mind-body integrated wellness strategy that combines physical exercise with an internally focused conscious emphasis on awareness of the self, breath, and energy. YOGA, an ancient Indian practice, is today viewed as a comprehensive approach to health in the Western world, and is designated as a kind of Complementary and Alternative Medicine (CAM) by the National Institutes of Health (Catherine, 2011). Yoga is a methodical method for enhancing a man's whole development. Man learns to dwell in higher levels of awareness as a result of this development (Naragatti, 2020). On June 21, 2015, Prime Minister Narendra Modi of India declared the inaugural International Day of Yoga. The event set two Guinness World Records: one for the largest number of persons participating in a single yoga session at a single location and the other for the most countries represented in a yoga class. The event was acknowledged and commemorated in more than 170 nations, including the United States of America, China, and Canada (Ministry of Ayush, n.d.2015). Aim To study the effect of IDY Yoga practices on state trait anxiety, emotions, sleep quality and respiratory parameters among general male population (aged between 20-60 years) Method 60 subjects were selected. Age: Above 20 yrs. and up to 60 Yrs. Gender: Male, SAMPLE SIZE n= 30 (control group) + 30 (experimental group) = 60 Result In the within group assessment, since the data was found to be not normally distributes in the baseline Wilcoxon signed rank test was conducted the Bhramri duration (p=<0.001), Respiratory rate (p=<0.001), PANAS +VE (p=<0.001), PANAS –VE (p=<0.001) AND PSQI scale (p=0.029) shown significant changes with post mean And SD as given above. Only in STAI score we did not find any significant change (p=0.596). CONCLUSION This study suggested that practicing online one month of IDY protocol practices has significant improvement on Bhramri time duration, Respiratory Rate and Sleep quality.

    (S-VYASA, 2016-12) KURIAN, JINTU
    Background India is currently facing disorders in lifestyle, and resulting physical, mental, and social disharmony such anxiety, stress, worries, lack of awareness, variations in the heart rate. The epidemiological studies shows a hike from communicable diseases to non-communicable diseases indicating that the adults are more prone for anxiety related, mindfulness related and heart rate related issues. Introduction Mindfulness has been conceptualized as the process of bringing attention and awareness to objects within the experience of the present moment with a non-judgmental and non-evaluative acceptance and openness. State anxiety (SA) can be conceptualized as “a state in which an individual is unable to instigate a clear pattern of behavior to remove or alter the event/object/interpretation that is threatening an existing goal. Heart rate variability (HRV) refers to beat to beat alterations in the heart rate and is associated with cardiac autonomic regulation. Correlational study design was used. Eighty three subjects were assessed using state anxiety and mindfulness questionnaire and heart rate variability measurement. There was no intervention, since our objective was to understand correlation between mindfulness, state anxiety and heart rate variability. Result: SMAAS, STAI and HRV were assessed to understand the correlation between these three variables. Results showed significant high negative correlation between SMAAS and STAI. STAI and LF of HRV is positively correlated whereas SMAAS and LF is negatively correlated. There was a significant moderate negative correlation between STAI and HF, whereas SMAAS is positively correlated with HF. And also, there was a significant moderate positive correlation between STAI and LF/HF ratio and negative correlation between SMAAS and LF/HF ratio. Conclusion: There was a significant moderate negative correlation between STAI and, whereas SMAAS is positively correlated with HF. And also, there was a significant moderate positive correlation between STAI and LF/HF ratio and negative correlation between SMAAS and LF/HF ratio.

    (S-Vyasa, 2017-01-16) Xu Wen
    Background/Aim: Diabetes Mellitus type 2 (T2DM) is a group of metabolic diseases characterized by chronic hyperglycemia, either due to defect in insulin secretion or insulin action, or both. Mind Sound Resonance Technique (MSRT) is one of the yoga based relaxation techniques. Practice of MSRT shown to be effective in various chronic health conditions including diabetes mellitus. Materials and Methods: This self as control study recruited 32 T2DM patients (age mean: 54.84, SD: 8.65) registered for a week long inpatient treatment at the holistic health home in Bangalore. Subjects underwent 20 minutes of two different intervention; MSRT and supine rest on two consecutive days at 6:40 AM to 7:00 AM. We excluded the subjects if they; had anxiety disorder, were on any anti-psychotic medication, were on insulin. We assessed state anxiety and subjective feeling of relaxation using spilberg’s state anxiety inventory (STAI) and Visual Analogue Scale (VAS) respectively and fasting blood glucose level before and immediately after both the intervention. Results: The results showed a significant reduction (P<0.001) in blood glucose, STAI, and increase in relaxation as depicted through VAS immediately following the practice of MSRT, whereas, some marginal changes were found in SR group which were not statistically significant. Conclusion: Single session of MSRT helps in reducing blood glucose level, state anxiety and subjective feeling of relaxation immediately after practice. However further randomized controlled studies need to be performed to confirm the present findings.
