Conclusion
depression, anxiety, pregnancy-induced stress
Our study shows that the prenatal Yoga protocol used in this study was associated with reduced stress, anxiety, and depression among pregnant women. Therefore, this protocol can be used by pregnant women as a preventive as well as a therapeutic complementary measure for reducing pregnancy-induced stress, anxiety, and other psychological imbalances. Yoga appears to maintain good psychological health even in unhelpful emotional and mental states. Apart from psychological changes, our prenatal Yoga protocol was found to be helpful in alleviating overall quality of life by improving the quality of psychological and environmental health and balancing social and physical domains throughout the pregnancy.
