Abstract

PURPOSE

There is a dearth of evidence for the relationship between yogic breathing and sleep quality. Even less is known about practice frequency and benefit. We investigated the association of Sudarshan Kriya Yoga frequency with sleep quality amongst adult practitioners.

METHODS

In a cross-sectional investigation on adult practitioners of Sudarshan Kriya Yoga in Singapore, the Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI) was used to assess sleep quality. Sleep quality was examined across three categories of practice frequency (monthly, weekly, daily). A multivariate logistic regression model was used to determine association.

RESULTS

Of 385 adults (241 women), the mean age (SD) was 42.5 (9.9) years. In total, 32% of the sample (n = 124) was identified as having poor SQ. After adjusting for study covariates, independent analyses revealed an inverse association for higher frequency of practice and lower odds of poor SQ (OR = 0.52; 95% CI = 0.28-0.94). The p for trend was 0.03.

CONCLUSION

The practice of yogic breathing may benefit sleep quality. Further experimental investigations are warranted.

摘要

目的

关于瑜伽呼吸与睡眠质量之间的关系，缺乏相关证据。对于练习频率与益处的了解甚至更少。我们调查了成人练习者中苏达山克里亚瑜伽频率与睡眠质量之间的关联。

方法

在一项针对新加坡苏达山克里亚瑜伽成年练习者的横断面调查中，使用匹兹堡睡眠质量指数（PSQI）来评估睡眠质量。在三种练习频率类别（每月、每周、每天）中检查睡眠质量。使用多元逻辑回归模型来确定关联。

结果

在385名成年人（241名女性）中，平均年龄（标准差）为42.5（9.9）岁。总体而言，32%的样本（n = 124）被确定为睡眠质量差。在对研究协变量进行调整后，独立分析显示练习频率较高与睡眠质量差的几率较低之间存在负相关（比值比 = 0.52；95%置信区间 = 0.28 - 0.94）。趋势p值为0.03。
