我们在一项针对瑜伽练习者(360 名瑜伽学生,156 名瑜伽老师)的全国调查中探讨了采用和维持瑜伽练习的动机。学生和老师进行瑜伽练习主要是为了锻炼身体和缓解压力,但也报告了许多其他原因,包括灵活性、塑形和缓解抑郁/焦虑。超过 62% 的学生和 85% 的教师表示已经改变了练习的主要原因或发现了其他原因;对于两人来说,高层变化的主要原因是灵性。研究结果表明,大多数人开始练习瑜伽是为了锻炼身体和缓解压力,但对许多人来说,灵性成为他们坚持练习的主要原因。
We examined motives for adopting and maintaining yoga practice in a national survey of yoga practitioners (360 yoga students, 156 yoga teachers). Both students and teachers adopted yoga practice primarily for exercise and stress relief, but reported many other reasons, including flexibility, getting into shape, and depression/anxiety relief. Over 62 percent of students and 85 percent of teachers reported having changed their primary reason for practicing or discovering other reasons; for both, the top changed primary reason was spirituality. Findings suggest that most initiate yoga practice for exercise and stress relief, but for many, spirituality becomes their primary reason for maintaining practice.
