简要总结
Cleansing practices are part of most indigenous health systems practiced in Yoga. The practice of trataka involves concentrated gazing on a small object (usually a candle flame). . The technique is said to reduce the eye disorders and to reduce the laziness . The scientific studies on Trataka used cognitive functions and vision as their outcome measures. Several studies were explored on trataka kriya to assess the effects ,cognitive function(memory ,attention), eye sight improvement, vital parameters and heart rate variability . There is dearth of studies exploring the sustenance of change in vital parameters and heart rate variability after the trataka kriya .Hence this study has been proposed to evaluate the effect of trataka in vital parameters and heart rate variability .And to observe the sustenance of change in vital parameters and heart rate variability.Hence this study focuses on observing the effect Trataka on vital parameters and heart rate variability among college students.
