About this trial

The goal of this trial is to learn if the Yoga Asana Chandra Harmoni intervention can improve psychological well-being and learning readiness in medical students. The main questions it aims to answer are:

Does Yoga Asana Chandra Harmoni improve psychological well-being (specifically, reduce stress, anxiety, and depression) in medical students? Does Yoga Asana Chandra Harmoni enhance self-directed learning readiness in medical students? Researchers will compare a group receiving the Yoga Asana Chandra Harmoni intervention to a control group to see if the intervention leads to significant improvements in psychological well-being and self-directed learning readiness.

Participants will:

Complete baseline questionnaires assessing psychological well-being, sleep quality, self-directed learning readiness, and self-efficacy.

Participate in 3 weekly Yoga Asana Chandra Harmoni sessions for 4 weeks (intervention group).

Continue with their usual activities (control group). Complete follow-up questionnaires at post-test (end of week 4) and at a 2-week follow-up to assess changes in the outcome measures.

Engage in additional online audio guided practices 5 times/week for 20-30 minutes, including breathing exercises (weeks 1-2) and body scans (weeks 3-4) (intervention group).
