本文综述了瑜伽姿势对心理状态（包括焦虑和抑郁）、疼痛综合征、心血管、自身免疫和免疫状况以及妊娠的影响。此外，瑜伽的生理效应，包括降低心率和血压和身体的影响，包括减肥和增加肌肉力量进行了审查。最后，潜在的潜在机制，包括压力感受器的刺激，导致增强迷走神经活动和减少皮质醇。反过来，皮质醇的减少可能有助于增强免疫功能和降低早产率等积极影响。
In this paper recent research is reviewed on the effects of yoga poses on psychological conditions including anxiety and depression, on pain syndromes, cardiovascular, autoimmune and immune conditions and on pregnancy. Further, the physiological effects of yoga including decreased heartrate and blood pressure and the physical effects including weight loss and increased muscle strength are reviewed. Finally, potential underlying mechanisms are proposed including the stimulation of pressure receptors leading to enhanced vagal activity and reduced cortisol. The reduction in cortisol, in turn, may contribute to positive effects such as enhanced immune function and a lower prematurity rate.
