Abstract

Contemporarily, there has been an increasing interest in looking for alternative therapeutic practices for the treatment and prevention of diseases. Among these practices, yoga has gained significant recognition for its potential health benefits and its ability to promote physical, spiritual, and mental well-being. The findings of research in this arena contribute to the existing knowledge on the perception of youth towards yoga as a curative practice. By elucidating the perception of youth, this study aims to provide insights into potential strategies for promoting yoga as a complementary therapy for diseases, targeting a younger demographic. Understanding the perceptions and beliefs of this population group is crucial for developing effective educational programs, interventions, and awareness campaigns to promote the integration of yoga into mainstream healthcare. The results of this research are expected to have implications for healthcare professionals, policymakers, and yoga practitioners interested in the holistic management of diseases. Furthermore, they can inform the development of evidence-based guidelines and recommendations for incorporating yoga into healthcare systems, facilitating collaborations between medical professionals and yoga instructors, and promoting the adoption of yoga as a preventive and curative tool for various diseases.
