YOGA RESEARCH SUMMARIES

Yoga Therapy in Practice, IAYT's triannual membership newsletter, publishes summaries of recently reported research on Yoga and meditation. IAYT members can access archives of these summaries below.

If you would like to conduct a search for older studies, or studies on a specific issue (i.e., Yoga and chronic pain), Pub Med offers a free search engine for published medical research, with summaries of over 800 studies on Yoga. IAYT also has compiled extensive bibliographies of print, online, and media resources on a wide range of topics and health conditions.
