QoL was the primary outcome of interest. Eight randomized controlled trials with 545 participants were included. The sample-weighted synthesis at immediate postintervention revealed marginally statistically and modest practically significant differences suggesting yoga’s potentially greater …

An eight-week stress management program focusing on the concepts of resiliency and proactive coping was implemented at a local retirement community. An overall …
