Author(s) MonaLiza Hayes

Abstract Abstract
Medical interventions which include mind and body are recommended for the management of depression. Yoga is one of the most frequently recommended complementary therapies to manage depression. The aim of this systematic review (SR) was to assess and analyse the effects of yoga on postnatal depression. A systematic and replicable search of CINAHL, Medline, PubMed and PsycINFO databases was undertaken using a wide range of MeSH terms including ‘pregnancy’, ‘postnatal’, ‘depression’, ‘anxiety’, ‘mental health’, ‘yoga’. Author reference list were searched and Google Scholar used to find further studies, and grey literature was examined. A total of 9 studies which evaluated the effects of yoga on postnatal depression were selected. The overall findings of all the studies showed positive effects in the reporting of reduction in anxiety, depressive symptoms and increasing practice of mindfulness amongst the women who were studied.
