The COVID-19 pandemic has affected the entire world. The SARS-CoV-2 virus is wreaking havoc globally, leading to serious health problems and even death. The purpose of this study is to present the brainwave variability pattern using QEEG after exposure to COVID-19 and to introduce the subject of the Sudarshan Kriya Yoga (SKY)-based breathing technique. QEEG is one of the basic neurological examinations through which we can compare the changes in the nervous system after SARS-CoV-2 virus infection and observe the variation of brainwave frequencies with a breathing technique.

Adolescence is a critical life period that marks the transition into adulthood. This novel study aims to evaluate the benefits of 4- day intervention, Sudarshan Kriya Yoga (SKY), a breathing technique, on the emotional, mental, and cognitive health of teenagers. Open label trial tests were administered at pre-intervention, immediately after SKY, and after 40 days of SKY practice.

Background: Telomere length has been identified as a marker for biological aging and stressful body states. Mind-body interventions for stress reduction such as meditation, yoga, and pranayama have been previously tested to evaluate their efficacy in restricting telomere shortening.
Primary Study Objective: In this study, the effect of Sudarshan Kriya Yoga (SKY) is investigated for its influence on telomere length.

Previous studies, using the Continuous Flash Suppression (CFS) paradigm, observed that (Western) university students are better able to detect otherwise invisible pictures of objects when they are presented with the corresponding spoken word shortly before the picture appears. Here we attempted to replicate this effect with non-Western university students in Goa (India). A second aim was to explore the performance of (non-Western) meditators practicing Sudarshan Kriya Yoga in Goa in the same task.
