Can breathing exercises boost Yoga's power to melt student stress?

This trial tests whether adding pranayama breathing exercises to online yoga sessions offers extra benefits for university students dealing with stress and neck tension. About 55 students will be randomly assigned to either yoga alone or yoga plus pranayama, attending online sessions three times a week for four weeks. Researchers will measure changes in anxiety, neck-related disability, and the physical properties of neck muscles using a device called MyotonPRO. The goal is to see if the combined approach improves muscle elasticity and reduces stress more than yoga alone.
