Effect of yoga Nidra on selected physiological variables of pre diabetic male patient

Abstract

This study has one fold objectives: - (i) to know the effect of yoga Nidra on selected physiological variables of pre diabetic male patient. Twenty pre diabetic male patients (30-45 years) from different parts of Gorakhpur were randomly selected and were randomized into two groups. These patients fully participated in all training sessions during ten weeks of the training schedule. During this practice they did not take any other treatment. All participants were randomized into two groups. Group-I- Yoga Nidra, Group-II –control group. Results- The calculated value of t is 0.633 which is less than the tabulated value of t which is 1.984 at 0.05 level of significance (p0.05), therefore there exist a no significant difference in the blood glucose level between the experimental group and control group at the later stage at the end of the training. Hence it can be said that the yoga Nidra training not helped in remarkable improvement in lowering the blood glucose level of the diabetic patient in comparison to the control group. Conclusion- The subjects showing minimal to moderate sugar level have shown no significant decrease in their blood after two weeks ‘Yoga Nidra' session. Even in most cases their sugar level is not reduced.
