ABSTRACT- Background: Transcendental Meditation (TM) promotes a state of relaxation. It has been reported in vedic literature that practicing TM during pregnancy has health benefits .There is a paucity of data regarding use to TM by pregnant women. Objective: The aim was to determine the knowledge, attitudes, and practice toward TM among pregnant women. Materials and Methods: This was a prospective, cross-sectional, observational, questionnaire-based study conducted in 100 antenatal women attending private nursing homes for their antenatal care. Results: Among the respondents, 32% were aware of TM and 22% practiced it during their current pregnancy, 15% practised it under a TM instructor. The time schedule followed by respondents was as follows, 15 women practised it for 20 min a day, 3 practised for 10 min a day, rest didn’t follow the schedule. Thirty percent respondents felt that TM was based on scientific evidence, while 25% felt it was safer than other relaxation techniques that is significantly more in women educated up-to or more than 12th std. Twenty-five percent opined that TM is more efficacious than other relaxation techniques which is significantly more in working women. Relaxation of body and mind, easy to practice, were the most common advantages of practising TM during pregnancy. The main source of information about TM was internet and social media. Conclusion: Awareness about TM is less and so is the practice in the pregnant women. The importance of practising TM during pregnancy needs to be addressed. This will help the mothers to have healthy pregnancy and out-come. Key-words- Relaxation techniques, Antenatal women, Questionnaire based study, Transcendental Meditation (TM)

Health Education on prevention of hypertensionRadhika kulvi
Hypertension is a chronic condition of concern due to its role in the causation of coronary heart diseases. Hypertension is a worldwide epidemic and important risk factor for coronary artery disease, stroke and renal diseases. Blood pressure is the force exerted by the blood against the walls of the blood vessels and is sufficient to maintain tissue perfusion during activity and rest. Hypertension is sustained elevation of BP. In adults, HTN exists when systolic blood pressure is equal to or greater than 140mmHg or diastolic BP is equal to or greater than 90mmHg. The

YOGIC DIAGNOSTIC TOOLS
3. NEED for Yogic Diagnostic tools?
Yoga therapy isn’t a symptomatic treatment.
For “tailor making” the treatment schedule, tracing the “root
cause” of the disease and the awareness regarding it is
imperative.
Making the patient understand and accept the cause of
his problem and all other factors aggravating it is the only
way to prevent worsening of the condition, its relapse and to
facilitate conscious measures to adopt a healthier lifestyle.
The inference drawn from the analysis makes for the
baseline of treatment.
Also, acts as reference points to assess progress in therapy
in order to make modifications/ advancements accordingly.
These are extensive methods to understand one’s patient
wholly and not just on the usual physical parameters.
4. ROGA LAKSHANAM FORM
A tool developed by Dr. Swami Gitananda Giri Guru Maharaja, adopted by CYTER,

menstrual cycle, bowels and bladder.
6. Sankalpa: Vows, inclination to get better & live healthy,
icha-kriya-jnana shakti coordination
12. Some Practical Problems in Assessment
The length of questionnaire for a beginner
The necessary training of the therapist on these concepts and their
diagnosis
The interest in / importance given by therapist to perform this
diagnosis
The way to divide questions based on the time availability during
therapy classes, without losing patient’s interest & involvement
Knowledge of how to put forth these questions and extract answers
from patients.
The skills of Yoga Instructors/ Non-medical Yoga therapists in

The importance of scheduling repeat assessment after a month of
therapy
to assess progress and results at end of therapy
