Effect of tele-yoga on burnout, mental health and immune markers of health care workers on COVID-19 duty: An open-label parallel group pilot randomized controlled trial
Tele-yoga is a feasible and accessible intervention for improving burnout, sleep quality, and reducing anxiety, stress, IL-6, and serum cortisol among healthcare workers in tertiary care hospitals during the COVID-19 pandemic. Being a single-center pilot study in India and with other methodological limitations, the generalizability of the study findings is restricted.
