Title: Yoga therapy - A proactive approach to promote successful aging

DIVYA SHARMA, B R Sharma.


Abstract
Yoga, an ancient health technique, is gaining renewed interest due to its potential to promote healthy aging. Previously, the scientific validation of its effectiveness was predominantly based on limited and inadequately constructed studies, but this situation is now undergoing a transformation. Various meticulously conducted research offer empirical evidence indicating that engaging in yoga has beneficial impacts on cellular aging, physical mobility, balance, mental well-being, and the prevention of cognitive decline. These are all areas of particular interest and importance for older individuals. Due to the low cost of adopting yoga-based treatments in communities and homes, policymakers are considering yoga practice as a cost-effective method to decrease medical expenses and enhance outcomes for the increasing elderly population. This commentary explores the benefits of yoga therapy for older adults and highlight its potential to improve their overall well-being. The yoga offerings encompass a diverse array of programs and levels of difficulty, ensuring that virtually everyone can partake and reap the health advantages through regular practice.

Key words: Keywords: Yoga therapy, Ageing, Quality of life
