  • Using Bikram Yoga for Stress Management in the Daily Lives of College Students
    Using Bikram Yoga for Stress Management in the Daily Lives of College Students Sarah Gordon Abstract College students experience higher-than-normal levels of stress. Chronic exposure to stress may lead to physical and mental illness. Introducing a regular practice of Bikram yoga, a form of yoga performed in a hot room developed by Bikram Choudhury in the 1970s, could be an effective stress-management technique for college students. Traditional yoga is an established alternative therapy for promoting health through meditation, reduction of the stress hormone Cortisol, and release of beneficial mood-stabilizing neurotransmitters. Preliminary studies show that Bikram yoga can be profoundly beneficial in the same areas as traditional yoga. However, little is known about the effect of stress reduction when implemented into the routine of the college student. This study aims to identify the physiological and psychological benefits experienced by college students during an eight-week Bikram yoga intervention, in which they will attend a 90 minute Bikram session twice a week. The control group will continue their normal exercise routines twice a week. All subjects will be evaluated prior to the intervention, weekly, and upon completion for their stress-related indicators using the Perceived Stress Questionnaire (PSQ), a College Student Stress Scale (CSSS), a Stress-related Physical Health Symptoms Checklist, and a Behavioral Risk Factor Surveillance System. Both groups will have their weight, resting heart rate and blood pressure, blood oxygen saturation (SpO²), and Cortisol measured within 10 minutes of each Bikram yoga session or the control exercise activity. Through comparison of the test and control group, the findings should indicate a significant reduction in the college student’s perceived stress and overall health indicators, as well as any stress-related symptoms.

  • Yoga Therapy for Depression
    Yoga Therapy for Depression Sharmila Saigaonkar Hot Yoga Wellness Abstract Mental health and well being is an important component of our overall health. In fact, mental and physical health is intimately connected through a variety of bidirectional mechanisms. Research evidence suggests that by supporting the mental health of our client will help to: Reduce risk behaviors (e.g. tobacco, alcohol, and drug misuse) Reduce severity of physical illness Improve recovery rates Improve physical health outcomes (www.bcmhsus.ca, 2013) This study explores to understand the biochemical process in general depression and applying yoga in itself as a therapy to manage the symptoms through understanding the strong connection between mind, body and breathe. Yoga Therapy is not a one size fit all solution, as each individual reacts differently, though situation is the same. Yoga Therapy for Depression Depression is about feeling of sadness for extensive period of time though everything in your life is going right (TedX, 2013). Prolonged feeling of sadness can turn into an illness that causes brain damage. It is an inability to experience love; pleasure and also inability to enjoy work or play in a daily life. Sometimes, instead of sadness, a depressed person will experience a general sense of emotional numbness, an inability to feel anything or unable to express anything. The person may become short-tempered when they are depressed. They may be more irritable, snapping at coworkers or clients, which may lead to new stresses and conflicts. Feeling stress and anxiety (physical tension and worry) can also accompany depressed mood. It is very complex to understand and it is more than just too much or too little of brain chemicals.
