Results underscore the multifaceted impact of Integral Yoga Psychology, promoting a conducive learning environment. The discussion emphasizes the universal applicability and transformative potential of this approach, contributing to the development of well-rounded individuals. Future research can delve deeper into long-term impacts, advancing applied psychology in education. The comprehensive study draws from a rich array of references, including Sri Aurobindo’s works and contemporary publications on Integral Yoga Psychology. The abstract concludes with keywords, highlighting the research’s focus on Integral Yoga Psychology, Holistic Education, Transformative Learning, Conscious Evolution, Holistic Well-being, and the Educational Environment.
