This paper explores the significant role of yoga exercises in stress management and its potential to promote health equity through community-based yoga programs. Yoga, an ancient practice, combines physical postures, breathing exercises, and meditation techniques to reduce stress and anxiety while improving flexibility, strength, and overall health. Through community-based programs, yoga can become an accessible tool to address stress-related health disparities, especially in underserved populations. These programs provide an equitable approach to mental and physical well-being, offering a cost-effective solution to stress management. This paper discusses the benefits of yoga, including its impact on the mind-body connection, its role in reducing stress, and the transformative potential of community-based initiatives.
