Suicide is a serious problem among people suffering from mental health conditions. And it is mainly seen in children and adolescents. According to research, suicide is the second leading cause of death among youth. That’s why teaching children and adolescents how to deal with the problem becomes important. And yoga plays a significant role in suicide prevention.

How Yoga Helps in Preventing Suicidal Thoughts

Mindfulness practices are helpful in reducing suicidal thoughts which can be achieved by yoga. It acts as a therapy for children and adolescents suffering from any mental health condition such as depression, anxiety, eating disorders etc.

Yoga practices such as pranayama are effective meditation techniques that are beneficial for breathing consciousness. When yoga is combined with other mindful activities like healthy eating and outdoor activities, it brings a holistic approach to life throughout life.

Practice Meditation Daily
