Abstract :

Introduction: The integrative and holistic approach to healthcare acknowledges that conventional mainstream medicine cannot adequately address a person’s health on its own since it frequently ignores crucial psychological and spiritual aspects. The Yoga Prana Vidya (YPV) System, which stresses energy healing and self-awareness, has become well-known as a complementary and alternative medicine. This paper examines how the Yoga Prana Vidya System promotes emotional and spiritual development in addition to providing a means of physical healing, thereby improving total wellness.

Method: This study uses literature study and content analysis method in the Qualitative research regime. A sample of 73 published research articles that documented successful treatments using YPV System is selected for this purpose.

Results: Analysis shows that 23.3% papers show evidence of successful treatment of psychological cases (Mental/emotional), and 76.7% papers show evidence of successful treatment of physical illnesses. YPV psychotherapy protocols are included in all cases as a first step in healing. Further analysis shows that out of the 17 articles that documented psychological cases treated, 6(35.3%) articles evidenced application as complementary medicine, while 11(64.7%) articles show successful treatment using YPV as alternative medicine. Similarly, out of the 56 articles that documented physical illnesses/diseases, 24 ( 42.9%) articles show YPV as alternative medicine, and 32 (57.1%) articles show using YPV as complementary medicine.

Conclusions: This study enables gaining a greater understanding of this system’s function in supporting an integrated and well-rounded integrative approach to holistic health by looking at its tenets, applications and performance as complementary and alternative medicine.
