About this trial

The aim of this study is to learn whether a program that combines yoga, meditation, and mindful eating can help reduce stress, anxiety, and depression, and improve mindfulness in university students.

The main questions the study aims to answer are:

* Does participating in yoga, meditation, and mindful eating sessions lower students' levels of stress, anxiety, and depression? * Does the program improve students' mindfulness and general well-being?

What will happen in the study:

Participants will:

* Attend weekly sessions of yoga, meditation, and mindful eating for 32 hours total. * Practice physical postures (Asanas), breathing exercises (Pranayama), relaxation, and meditation. * Receive short lessons about mindful nutrition and healthy lifestyle habits. * Complete questionnaires before and after the program to measure stress, anxiety, depression, and mindfulness.
