Our objective was to test the hypothesis that SKY training improves CAC and cardiorespiratory coupling in patients with anxiety and/or depression disorders. However, the effects of Sudarshan Kriya Yoga (SKY) on autonomic function in this population is unknown. Several studies have demonstrated that adjuvant therapies as exercise and breathing training are effective in improving cardiac autonomic control (CAC) in patients with affective spectrum disorders. Toschi-Dias, Edgar Tobaldini, Eleonora Solbiati, Monica Costantino, Giorgio Sanlorenzo, Roberto Doria, Stefania Irtelli, Floriana Mencacci, Claudio Montano, Nicola Sudarshan Kriya Yoga improves cardiac autonomic control in patients with anxiety-depression disorders. These EEG, ECG and DT shows a significant decrement in mental stress and improvement in cognitive performance after SKY, indicating SKY as a good alternative of medication for stress management. We observed that alpha band power decreases in the frontal lobe of the brain with increasing mental stress while frontal brain asymmetry decreases with increasing stress tolerance.
We quantified mental stress using EEG, ECG and DT synergistically and used SKY to regulate it. Electroencephalograph was taken during a DT task, before and after SKY the sky session with 30 days of SKY session given to the experimental group. A total of 20 subjects were taken in the study, of which 10 were allotted to a control group. We have chosen a control group for contriving a cogent comparison that could be corroborated using statistical tests. To envision the regulation of stress Determination Test (DT) has been used.
The present study focuses on analyzing the effects of Sudarshan Kriya yoga (SKY) on EEG as well as ECG signals for stress regulation. Mental Stress: Neurophysiology and Its Regulation by Sudarshan Kriya Yoga.Ĭhandra, Sushil Jaiswal, Amit Kumar Singh, Ram Jha, Devendra Mittal, Alok Prakash
