Master Neuroscience of Yoga: Exploring Mind‑Body Science, Education, and Consciousness
Dive into the second volume of this authoritative series that unites ancient yoga philosophy, modern neuroscience, and translational insight. This multidisciplinary guide illuminates how yoga shapes brain function, behavior, learning, and spiritual experience across clinical and educational realms.
Key Features:
Multidimensional Framework: Unpacks how yoga and mindfulness influence neuromodulation, neuroplasticity, metabolic health, and mood regulation—across conditions such as aging, neurodegeneration, pain, cancer, cardiovascular dysfunction, and mental health.
Clinical Intervention & Lifestyle Insight: Examines outcomes from yoga in neurological and metabolic disorders, intervention trials for mood and cognitive aging, and behavioral protocols to reduce pain and chronic disease burden.
Youth, Education & Neuroeconomics: Details school-based and community mindfulness programs, neuroeconomic perspectives on decision-making and focus, and strategies to bridge practice gaps in real-world settings.
Spirituality, Consciousness & Research Models: Explores neurobiological dimensions of consciousness, spirituality, and the intersection with ancient yogic traditions. Highlights the value of animal models in yoga research and methodologies for rigorous integrative science.
Public Policy & Ethical Efficacy: Provides guidance on knowledge, attitude, and policy gaps in integrative brain health practices—addressing ethics, evidence quality, and research integrity across applied contexts.
Ideal for neuroscientists, integrative medicine professionals, educators, mindfulness researchers, clinicians, and policymakers, this volume offers richly detailed evidence and practical frameworks. Whether you’re studying yoga’s impact on brain‑body health, implementing wellness programs, or shaping policy for holistic care, this resource delivers depth, clarity, and relevance across theory, application, and innovation.
