Yoga Practice for 45 Days Alters Brain Connectivity and Improves Mood

A randomized controlled trial with 139 healthy adults found that 45 days of standardized yoga improved mood, sleep quality, and short-term memory compared to a control group. Brain scans of 43 participants showed changes in functional connectivity in networks related to movement, attention, language, and cognitive processing, though the long-term effects are still unclear.
