Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

Purpose of the research; To determine the effect of basic yoga techniques and meditation intervention on midwifery students' anxiety and perceived stress levels. Yoga is alternative mind-body exercises that aim to establish a connection between the brain and body. Derived from the Sankiritic term "yuj", yoga means to integrate. Yoga techniques focus on self-awareness and require careful coordination of body movements/postures (asanas), deep breathing (pranayama) and meditation. Yoga can be used as a complementary and alternative method for various diseases or improving well-being. Yoga is becoming increasingly important in improving mental health. In this planned study, we aim to manage the anxiety and perceived stress that students studying in the field of health mostly suffer from with yoga techniques. After the sociodemographic data of the volunteer participants who agree to take part in the research are identified and recorded in the first stage, the screening phase, according to the power analysis, the minimum number of participants determined will be assigned to the experimental and control groups by randomization. In the second stage of the research, the experimental group; Yoga techniques and meditation practices (once a week for 8 weeks) will be performed at times when anxiety and stress are most intense (before exams, laboratory and hospital applications). Students in the control group will continue their routine coping habits with anxiety and stress. Students will complete pre- and post-intervention surveys to assess changes in anxiety and perceived stress. The anxiety and stress levels of students in both groups will be determined by applying the "Beck Anxiety Inventory" and the "Perceived Stress Scale" before and after the intervention. The data obtained after the interventions will be compared with appropriate statistical analysis and converted into a report. The proposed research aims to provide scientific research skills and experience to the 2nd year students of Atatürk University, Faculty of Health Sciences, Department of Midwifery, who are involved in the project. In addition, it is expected that the proposed project will show how it affects the anxiety and perceived stress levels of midwifery students in the international media and literature and emphasize its positive effects on the management of the well-being of these individuals.
