Effect of yoga on holistic health: A systematic study

Holistic health is a comprehensive concept encompassing the well-being of body, mind, emotions, and spirit. In recent decades, yoga has emerged as an effective integrative approach to health management. Rooted in Indian philosophy, yoga includes physical postures (asanas), breath regulation (pranayama), concentration (dharana), and meditation (Dhyana). This systematic study aims to explore the multidimensional impact of yoga on holistic health. Based on a thorough literature review, clinical research, and ancient texts, the study concludes that yoga significantly improves physical, psychological, emotional, and spiritual dimensions of health, validating its role in preventive and therapeutic healthcare.
