This research explores the transformative impact of Integral Yoga Psychology on the personal growth of teachers and its influence on students in educational settings. Rooted in the profound teachings of Sri Aurobindo and The Mother, Integral Yoga Psychology intertwines physical, mental, and spiritual dimensions to foster holistic well-being. The study employs a mixed-methods approach, including teacher interviews, surveys, classroom observations, case studies, and ongoing student interviews across five diverse integral schools. Thematic analysis reveals significant findings, such as integral personality transformation, resilience building, teaching with equanimity, and empathy development among teachers. The research also highlights unique aspects of integral education, including diverse teacher backgrounds, innovative curriculum design, and a commitment to community development. 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.
