International Journal of Yoga Therapy

Since 1990 this journal has served the professional needs of Yoga teachers and Yoga therapists, as well as Yoga researchers and health care profeessionals with an interest in Yoga therapy. Originally titled The Journal of the International Association of Yoga Therapists, the journal was renamed the International Journal of Yoga Therapy and revised and expanded in 1999 when the International Association of Yoga Therapists (IAYT) became a division of Yoga Research and Education Center. The latter name for the journal was retained when IAYT again became an independent organization in 2004. The journal was revised again in 2004 and has been formally peer reviewed since Volume 16 (2006).

The journal is published annually in October. (Most back issues are still available - see the bottom of the page.)
