Abstract

College students reporting high levels of stress participated in yoga classes for 6 weeks. The State-Trait Inventory, the Rumination and Reflection Scale, and The Penn State Worry Questionnaire were administered before and after 6 weeks of yoga classes. Statistically significant reductions in rumination, worry, state and trait anxiety were observed.
