This randomized controlled trial aimed to evaluate the effect of mindfulness-based yoga on psychological well-being and happiness in individuals diagnosed with schizophrenia. Participants were recruited from community mental health centers and randomly assigned to either an intervention group or a control group.
The intervention group participated in a structured mindfulness-based yoga program consisting of 12 sessions over six weeks, including mindfulness practices, breathing exercises, meditation, and yoga postures. The control group received routine care without additional intervention.
Primary outcomes included psychological well-being and happiness, measured using validated scales at baseline and post-intervention. The findings of the study are expected to contribute to the development of psychosocial interventions that support mental health and well-being in individuals with schizophrenia.
