Yogic Practices and Regenerative Sustainable Development: A Transdisciplinary Convergence for Holistic Well-Being and Ecological Resilience
The explores the integration of yogic practices rooted in ancient Indian wisdom into contemporary frameworks of regenerative sustainable development (RSD) through a transdisciplinary lens. While RSD emphasizes ecological restoration, circular economies, and community resilience, yogic philosophy fosters internal sustainability through mindfulness, balance, and holistic health. By synthesizing principles from environmental science, sustainability studies, psychology, and Indic spiritual traditions, this study proposes a model where yoga contributes to behavioural change, ecological consciousness, and community-based sustainability initiatives. The research employs a mixed-methods approach, combining ethnographic case studies with systems thinking to illustrate how yoga can enrich regenerative design, ecological ethics, and well-being metrics. Ultimately, the paper argues for a paradigm shift toward inner-outer sustainability, positioning yogic consciousness as a vital enabler of global regenerative transitions.
