| dc.description.abstract | HIV/AIDS has reached alarming proportions in South Africa, with many people's lives being affected. This research project looked more closely at caregivers involved in HIV/AIDS work, examining their stress levels and their psychological well-being. A yoga intervention program was implemented with a sample of caregivers at the Holy Cross Hospice, Emoyeni, in Zululand. The effectiveness of the program was evaluated using both qualitative and quantitative measures. Overall, this yoga intervention program was effective with many of the caregivers reporting noted improvements in their stress levels and psychological well-being. | en_US |
