- 소개/요약Yoga and mindfulness meditation are in trend for researchers as the effectiveness of its
practices is not only limited to eastern countries but widely spreading in the western countries
of the world. Historical evidence has reflected that yoga is not only practiced as a remedy for
specific illnesses rather as a practice to enrich physical, mental, and spiritual well-being
(Kirkwood, 2005). It is supported by research as studies show that yoga can provide a varied
range of psychological benefits, (Khalsa, 2004; Lipton, 2008) both in reducing negative
affect (Kirkwood, 2005; Chong, et al, 2011) and in nurturing positive wellness.(Cohen, 2007;
Sharma, et al, 2008). In line with yoga and meditation positive psychological interventions
(PPIs) also aim at prevention of psychological problems and enhancing overall well-being of
individuals The present study focuses on effectiveness of practicing yoga, mindfulness
meditation and major positive psychological interventions like Three good things, Gratitude
journal and Savouring positive experiences; during the crises like situation when majority of
the population is going through distress and experiencing negative emotions. Considering the
present pandemic situation due to COVID-19 where people are locked in their houses or
stuck away from homes there is a tremendous increase in stress, anxiety, depression, and
negative thoughts hence, these practices can help them stay positive and feel better about
present life. The research chapter will present the benefits of practicing yoga, mindfulness
meditation and PPIs by reviewing the previous studies to understand its effectiveness and
how regular practice of these interventions can be helpful in increasing positive emotional
experiences during lockdown.
