Among the main mental health conditions worldwide we find anxiety, depression and stress as the most prevalent, especially in young adults, in whom a greater presence and impact of these affective disorders is observed. The scientific search in recent years for therapeutic tools to combat these conditions has led to the discovery of a variety of beneficial effects in the practice of yoga.

The overall results of the study showed a decrease in the participants' symptoms of anxiety, depression and stress as well as an increase in their state of psychological well-being, and significant changes were reported. The contents of the present study represent a contribution tothe knowledge of the benefits of yoga in young adults.
