Dynamics of the duration of an individual minute in women during yoga classes
The purpose of the study is to evaluate the dynamics of the duration of the individual minute as indicator of stress resistance in mature women during yoga classes. The results of the study. The comparative assessment of the effect of yoga exercises for 8 weeks on the subjective perception of time in women at the beginning and at the end of the lesson was carried out. In women ,who practiced yoga in the evening 2 times a week for 90 minutes, the changes in the duration of the individual minute (MI) are more pronounced: the increase in MI at the beginning of the lesson for eight weeks was 2.36%, and by the end of the lesson - 6.84%. The results of the study substantiate the use of physical exercises of Iyengar yoga to increase stress resistance among the mature women. The revealed positive changes in the duration of the individual minute depend on the type of temperament: the increase in the duration of an individual minute was noted to the greatest extent in melancholic women. Conclusions. In the process of systematic yoga classes in mature women, regardless of the frequency and duration of training sessions, an increase in the duration of an individual minute is observed, which indicates an increase in the adaptive capabilities of the body.
