The Role of Yoga-Based Intervention on Anxiety Levels of Studying Women

Anxiety is a widespread mental health concern that significantly impacts individuals’ daily lives, particularly among women (Kuehner, 2017). The present study examined the effect of yoga-based intervention on the levels of anxiety among studying women. The study involved 187 female participants who reported varying levels of anxiety before participating in the intervention program. Pre-test and post-test anxiety levels were measured using the Hamilton Anxiety Rating Scale (HAM-A). The results showed a statistically significant mean difference, indicating that yoga-based intervention had a meaningful impact on participants’ anxiety levels. The findings suggest that yoga offers a holistic, non-pharmacological approach to anxiety management, addressing the emotional and physical aspects of anxiety simultaneously.
