Insomnia, a prevalent sleep disorder, significantly impact the quality of life, particularly in urban populations. This quasi-experimental study investigated the impact of integrated yoga techniques on insomnia among urban people in Patna, Bihar. Research was initiated in the month of October 2023 and 70 participants, aged about 40 to 60 years old, male and female, selected through the purposive sampling method, which was divided into a control (n = 35) and an experimental (n = 35) group. The Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI) was used to assess sleep quality before and after the intervention. The experimental group was given a two-month integrated yoga training including Jal-Neti, flexible asanas, relaxation asanas, Surya Namaskara, Yoga Nidra, and meditation, under the guidance of a certified yoga teacher, while the control group received no intervention. Statistical analysis was performed using Quick-Calcs on the GraphPad website. Results indicated a significant improvement in sleep quality in the experimental group. The findings support the potential benefits of integrated yoga techniques as a non-pharmacological intervention for insomnia and its components, highlighting its role in promoting overall well-being.
