Authors

Abstract
This study examined the effectiveness of an 8-week yoga intervention in
reducing internet addiction and improving psychological well-being and
mindfulness among 300 high school students in Jaipur, India. Participants were
randomly assigned to intervention and control groups. The intervention group
showed significant reductions in internet addiction scores and improvements in
well-being and mindfulness, while the control group exhibited minimal changes.
The results highlight yoga's potential as a non-invasive intervention to
promote emotional regulation, enhance self-awareness, and reduce compulsive
internet use among adolescents. The findings suggest incorporating yoga into
school-based wellness programs to support healthier digital habits and mental
health.
