The control group did not participate in any special training programme or strenuous physical activities apart from their day to day activities. Anxiety was selected as criterion variable.

The date collected from the subject were treated  statistically to find out the significant difference by using analysis of co-variances (ANCOVA) to find out  the significant difference in values of the selected variable. Within limitations of the present study, it is concluded that, the anxiety level has been reduced due to influence of six weeks training of varied yogic practices.
