Sažetak
Background: A growing body of evidence supports the belief that yoga benefits physical and mental health. The aim of the study is to investigate whether the sense of coherence and sense of agency are more developed in people practicing hatha-yoga than in the group of people who have never practiced yoga.
Methods: TAHE, SOC-29 questionnaire and short microphenomenological interview conducted on a group of 15 people (8 yoga
instructors, 7 in the control group).
Results: It has been shown that the study group has significantly higher scores in both the sense of agency and sense of
coherence than the control group. In addition, a statistically significant correlation was observed between the part of the values
mentioned above.
Conclusions: There are indications that the hatha-yoga exercise increases the sense of agency, which in the long run can
contribute to better mental health. In order to find a clear and certain link between the sense of coherence and the sense of agency additional research is necessary.
