Brief Summary
Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.
Detailed Description
Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.
Participants will be randomized into one of three groups: 1) in person yoga movement intervention, 2) online yoga movement intervention, 3) education group. Heart rate variability will be measured using a chest strap at the beginning and end of the 12 week intervention. At the beginning and end of the 12 week intervention, and at 3-months post-intervention, questionnaires will be completed online to assess self-compassion, psychological well-being, fatigue, exercise self-efficacy, physical activity identity, and body image.
