Yoga Intervention on Occupational Stress

Abstract

Health is a common theme in most cultures. The widely accepted definition of health is given by the World Health Organization in 1948 which is “Health is a complete state of physical, mental and social well-being and not merely an absence of disease or infirmity”. In recent years, this statement has been amplified to include the ability to lead a “socially and economically productive life.” So, keeping this in mind that socially and economically productive life is not possible without stress free occupation of individual and not any single occupation is stress free. So, Yoga intervention may be helpful to overcome the occupational stress and individual can live a healthy and stress-free life.
