Yoga and mindfulness show promise for happiness in schizophrenia

This study looked at whether a 6-week mindfulness-based yoga program could improve psychological well-being and happiness in adults with schizophrenia. 91 participants from community mental health centers were randomly assigned to either the yoga program or their usual care. The yoga group practiced mindfulness, breathing exercises, meditation, and gentle poses. The results aim to show if this type of activity can be a helpful addition to standard treatment.
