  2. In modern society, characterized by fast-paced lifestyles and constant activity, stress and anxiety frequently affect people, which can be detrimental to their health. But in the same context, the practice of yoga from the ancient period provides a great solution to face modern issues. Yoga therapy uses yoga postures, breathing techniques, and meditation to get rid of stress, hence improving the quality of life because it helps the body, mind, and spirit achieve peace.

  3. Holistic Approach of Yoga Therapy Yoga therapy is a treatment that considers the body, mind, and spirit as a single unit. It involves simple and coordinated body exercises that eliminate the causes of stress and anxiety, allowing people to achieve a healthy state of mind. Basic Yoga Practices for Stress Relief Yoga has many basic positions and practices that people interested in it can follow. A child's pose, for example, is a forward bend that stretches the muscles in the back, shoulders, and neck, thereby easing tensions and promoting a sense of grounding. Practicing sitting meditation or mindful breathing can effectively calm the mind and anchor an individual in the present moment, helping them stay grounded when facing life's pressures.

  4. The Power of Pranayama In addition to physical postures, yoga therapy emphasizes breath regulation or pranayama. Through pranayama practices, individuals can consciously influence their physiological states and conditions. Methods such as alternate nostril breathing and deep abdominal breathing have positive effects on the parasympathetic nervous system, which triggers the 'rest and digest' mechanisms, thus battling stress and anxiety.

  5. Scientific Evidence Supporting Yoga Therapy Scientific research supports yoga's positive effects on mental health. A study by scholars has shown that practicing yoga can raise GABA levels, which are utilized in the management of anxiety and mood disorders. Yoga has also been noted to decrease cortisol, a stress hormone, and increase mood and well-being.

  6. Incorporating Yoga Therapy into Daily Life It is possible to start practicing yoga therapy and apply it in one's life by investing as little as ten to fifteen minutes of morning or evening practice. As a first step, it is recommended to undertake a set of initial yoga positions and breathing exercises with the help of a trainer or by using online platforms. Gradually, it will be advisable to take classes dedicated to therapeutic yoga for targeting certain forms of mental disorders.

  7.
