Exclusion criteria

Exclusion criteria: 1) Mini-Mental State examination (MMSE) scoreâ?? 2) BMIâ??>=â??30â??kg/m2 3) The presence of cognitive or neurological disorders, based on a medical history and routine clinical examination. In addition, the following two tests would be used: (i) patients with pregnancy, (ii) physical or mental disability to do Yoga, (iii) history of drug, alcohol, or chemical abuse within 6 months prior to screening, (iv) patients with any surgical organic disease, and (v) inability to comply with study and follow-up procedures. 4) The presence of a behavioral/psychological disorder: (i) the presence of behavioral/psychological impairments will be assessed using the Symptom Checklist-90-R (SCL-90-R).

Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
1) This study will establish a baseline of neural activity, cerebral blood flow changes and psychophysiological changes in Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus patients. 2) This will be a good start of understanding and explore mechanism of brain role in the management of Type 2 Diabetes and association with other disorders such as anxiety, depression, quality of sleep, and food habit.Timepoint: Initial Phase of the study would assess the baseline then, mid assessment will be taken after 45 days of intervention and post assessment will be taken after 90 days of intervention.

Secondary

MeasureTime frame
The outcome of this study will be disseminated in layman language for general public awareness. This may also control the Type 2 diabetes related psychological, physiological and neurological problems and may enhance cognitive functions. The outcome of the project will be published in high impact factor Neuroscience journalsTimepoint: This study will establish a baseline of neural activity, cerebral blood flow changes and psychophysiological changes in Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus patients. This will be a good start of understanding and explore mechanism of brain role in the management of Type 2 Diabetes and association with other disorders such as anxiety, depression, quality of sleep, and food habit.
