This study doesn't follow the usual testing phases — it may be an observational study or a different type of research.
The YOGIA Study is testing whether a specialized yoga program can help people with schizophrenia spectrum disorders. The program includes breathing exercises, gentle poses, and relaxation techniques, all done in a group setting over 12 weeks. Researchers want to see if yoga is helpful, acceptable to patients, and practical to offer in real-world psychiatric clinics.
While traditional medications and therapy help many people with schizophrenia, researchers want to find additional tools that might reduce stress, improve physical health, and help people feel more in control. This treatment explores whether yoga could work alongside standard care to make a real difference in people's lives.

If you join this study, you would be randomly assigned to either a yoga group or a strength and flexibility training group. Either way, you'll attend one 50-minute session per week for 12 weeks, and you can participate from a chair if needed. You'll also continue your regular psychiatric care. The study includes some assessments at the beginning and end to measure how you're doing, and you'll receive €50 as compensation when you finish.
