Welcome to the Health And Yoga ResearchPapers!

Yoga, to a large many around the world still carries a magical aura. Originating from India, the land of snake charmers, Yoga is sometimes mistaken for physical postures or exercises. In the Research Papers section, we have tried to bring together various efforts by Yoga and Natural Health institutes and organisations, who have propogated the authentic message of Yoga with a scientific perspective.

The ResearchPapers section is intended to provide research papers to substantiate the scientific basis of Yoga

1. Physiology of Meditation Techniques
2. Physiology of Pranayama
