“…Temel öğretilerden oluşan yoga, zihnin odaklanmasını ve bireyin sakinleşmesini sağlayan nefes, meditasyon ve odaklanmayı sağlayıcı spesifik duruşları içerir (Feuerstein, 2003). Yoga, solunum manipülasyonu (nefes egzersizleri), bilişsel kontrol ve beden duruşu egzersizleri aracılığıyla vücudun fizyolojisini değiştirmektedir (Eggleston, 2015;Farahani, Hekmatpou, Khonsari ve Gholami 2019). Bunun yanı sıra, yoga gibi fiziksel egzersizleri içeren aktiviteler, bilişsel işlevlere katkıda bulunmaktadır (Galantino, Galbavy ve Quinn, 2008;Ploughman, 2008;Telles, Singh, Bhardwaj, Kumar ve Balkrishna, 2013).…”

Bu araştırmanın amacı, erken çocukluk dönemindeki çocuklarla yürütülen yoga çalışmasının çocukların bilişsel işlevlerine etkisini incelemektir. Bu araştırma, Ön Test-Son Test Kontrol Gruplu Deney Deseni (ÖSKD) ile yapılan yarı-deneysel bir çalışmadır. Araştırmanın örneklemi, İzmir ilindeki iki okul öncesi kurumunda öğrenim görmekte olan 4-5 yaş grubunda 10'u deney 18'i kontrol grubuna dâhil edilen 28 çocuktan oluşmaktadır. Araştırmada çocukların bilişsel işlevlerini belirlemek amacıyla "Bilişsel İşlevlerin Uygulanması Ölçeği (BİUÖ)" ve "Kişisel Bilgi Formu" kullanılmıştır. Araştırmada deney grubuna dahil edilen çocuklara 12 hafta boyunca haftanın 1 günü, 1 saat olmak üzere sertifikalı uzman yoga eğitmeni önderliğinde yoga eğitimi verilmiştir. Kontrol grubuna dâhil edilen çocuklara ise herhangi bir müdahalede bulunulmamıştır. Verilerin analizinde Mann Whitney-U testi ve Wilcoxon İşaretli Sıra testi kullanılmıştır. Araştırmadan elde edilen bulgulara göre; deney grubuna dâhil edilen çocukların BİUÖ toplam puanları ve Görevler Bölümü alt ölçeklerinden aldıkları son test puan ortalamaları ön test toplam puan ortalamalarından anlamlı düzeyde yüksek bulunmuştur. Kontrol grubuna dâhil edilen çocukların son test puan ortalamaları ile ön test puan ortalamaları arasında anlamlı bir fark bulunmamıştır. Deney ve kontrol gruplarının son test puan ortalamaları karşılaştırıldığında, kısa süreli işitsel bellek, bakış açısı alma ve sözel planlama alt ölçeklerinde istatistiksel olarak anlamlı bir farklılaşma olmadığı; sınıflandırma, kısa süreli işitsel bellek yeniden hatırlama, kısa süreli görsel bellek ve örüntü tamamlama alt ölçekleri ve BİUÖ son test toplam puanları arasında istatistik olarak anlamlı bir farklılaşma olduğu görülmektedir. Araştırmanın bulguları literatür doğrultusunda tartışılmıştır.

Attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) has been one of the leading causes of neuropsychiatric disorders among children, which is why it is extremely essential to have a clear understanding of the disease and the new and upcoming treatment options available. Yoga has been one of the most recently explored and newer techniques that have been employed in the treatment of this disorder. It has become extremely crucial to understand the importance of using supportive treatments in the management of ADHD owing to the innumerable side effects caused by stimulant medication and the growing demands of parental concern about starting their children on stimulant medication at a very young age. Through this review, we would like to shed light on how yoga helps improve the lives of children with ADHD and how it can be used as a supplementary therapy for children with ADHD. After thoroughly screening various articles on this topic, we selected a total of seven articles for this study to highlight the effect that yoga has had on the improvement of ADHD symptoms. Furthermore, we also highlight the impact of such interventions in a family-based environment and how they help improve the immediate environment of a child with this disorder, thereby facilitating the development of a conducive environment for growth. We also highlight how these interventions help control various miscellaneous symptoms among children, such as stress, depression, and anxiety, as these concomitant symptoms are often associated with ADHD. This review article helps explore how yoga has proved to be a very holistic approach to the management of children with ADHD.

Background: Cognitive disorders are considered one of the most important and controversial disorders among the elderly, which significantly reduces the quality of life and efficiency, and ultimately increases the mortality rate of the elderly. The purpose of this study is to investigate the effect of superbrain yoga exercises on the cognitive function of the elderly.Methods: This study is a quasi-experimental performed on 60 people of the elderly aged 60-75 years who regularly went to the centers of comprehensive health services in Khaf, a city in the west of Iran, in 1399. Participants were randomly selected and divided into two groups. A brief questionnaire was used to assess cognitive status which was completed at the beginning and end of the intervention. The elderly, after obtaining a score of 21 to 23 from the brief cognitive status questionnaire, were divided into two groups of intervention and control. The intervention group did superbrain yoga exercises three days a week for one month. The study data were analyzed using SPSS software version 20.Results: There was no statistical difference between the two groups in terms of cognitive function score before the intervention. Comparison of the mean score of cognitive status in the two groups after the intervention showed that there was a significant difference between the two groups (P <0.001).Conclusion: Superbrain yoga exercise affects the cognitive status of the elderly and is recommended to prevent Alzheimer's disease in the elderly with mild cognitive impairment.
