This study doesn't follow the usual testing phases — it may be an observational study or a different type of research.
This study is testing whether a program called Sudarshan Kriya Yoga (SKY)—which teaches special breathing techniques and meditation—can help healthcare workers like doctors and nurses feel less burned out and stressed. The research will compare this program to a general health education program to see which one works better at improving wellbeing.
Healthcare workers experience high levels of stress and burnout that can affect their mental and physical health. This trial aims to find out whether this breathing and meditation program can be an effective, practical way to help clinicians feel better and improve their sense of fulfillment at work.

If you join the breathing and meditation group, you'll start with one week of baseline measurements, then attend three 3.5-hour online workshops with an instructor spread over one week. After that, you'll join a one-hour live online session once a week for 4 weeks and practice breathing and meditation exercises on your own for 45 minutes daily (except on days you have a group session). You'll also wear a special ring that tracks your sleep and heart rate throughout the study. The comparison group will attend similar online sessions focused on general health education and daily practice.
