“…Los cuidadores, para hacer frente a la enfermedad ya sea para curar o reducir síntomas muchas veces invalidantes, en el caso de pediatría, buscan opciones alternativas al tratamiento convencional (Maza et al, 2021;Sánchez et al, 2015;Sencer & Kelly, 2007). El yoga es una terapia categorizada como complementaria/alternativa de mente y cuerpo, que produce beneficios a nivel físico y psicoemocional (Giménez et al, 2020;Iyengar, 2019;Iyengar, 2020;Parkes, 2016;, que no ha reportado resultados perjudiciales para la salud de los pacientes, como ha sido evidenciado en investigaciones internacionales realizadas en pacientes oncológicos adultos (Adair et al, 2018;Banasik et al, 2011;Buffart et al, 2012;Danhauer et al, 2017;Nirmalananda, 2010;Prinster, 2017) y pediátricos (Diorio et al, 2015;Geyer et al, 2011;Hooke et al, 2016;Orsey et al, 2017;Thygeson et al, 2010;Wurz et al, 2014). El Hatha es un tipo de yoga que proporciona bienestar al practicarlo (Iyengar, 2020;Lifar, 2003;Parkes, 2016) y es el que cuenta con evidencia científica donde se detalla específicamente su uso en la población oncológica pediátrica (Hooke et al, 2016;Thygeson et al, 2010).…”

Objetivo: Describir el efecto de un programa piloto de yoga en la calidad de vida de pacientes pediátricos con cáncer en tratamiento ambulatorio con quimioterapia. Método: diseño mixto, cuasi-experimental, pre-post. Se reclutaron participantes entre 6 a 10 años, ocho completaron todo el programa. El programa consideró 6 sesiones grupales de Hatha yoga. Se utilizaron las escalas Calidad de Vida pediátrica versión genérica y específica del cáncer (Pediatric Quality of life inventory (PedsQl) 4.0 y 3.0). Se realiza una entrevista semi-estructurada para identificar beneficios percibidos por el/la cuidador/a. Resultados: Los datos cuantitativos no muestran diferencias significativas en resultados de calidad de vida antes y después del programa, pero cualitativamente se reportaron beneficios en las entrevistas a cuidadores en las categorías del dolor, resistencia física y estado de ánimo. Conclusiones: Este estudio piloto aporta a la implementación de futuras investigaciones que incorporen el yoga en oncología pediátrica en un entorno hospitalario.

“…The term coherence implies logical argumentation, harmony, interconnectedness and consistency. For example, in IM it can be seen as implying a relationship between various bodily subsystems and related energies and the quality of yoking with divine energy, implicit in the term "yoga" (Iyengar, 2001;Iyengar, et al, 2005).…”

An introductory course of Arka Dhyana, also known as Intuitive Meditation (IM), consisting of five sessions, was offered to an international audience via Zoom technology. Participants were shown how to connect to their deeper self, essence or soul by bringing their I-ego-awareness from the thinking mind, often associated with the frontal part of the brain, to 19 energetic stations in the body including the heart centre. In this limited study, evaluation was both process and outcome orientated and included HeartMath (HM) Inner Balance or emWave2 electronic technology to measure mean coherence and achievement before and after each session. A highly significant increase in both coherence and achievement in six participants was found, which was also reflected in a reported increase in wellbeing related to feelings in qualitative statements indicating changes in levels of consciousness and individual transformative experiences as predicted by the Theory of the Six Main Levels of Consciousness.
