Background: Many studies have applied aspects of Yoga to different health conditions. Obesity is a major health problem and the 5^th leading risk for death globally. Reasons for these health problems are improper lifestyle and stress, which cause hormonal and chemical imbalance and disturb the proper coordination of metabolic and biochemical functions. So, the aim and objective of the present study is to assess the beneficial effects of 3 months of yoga practice on BMI, and lipid profile as well as correlate BMI with lipid parameters in overweight medical students between the age group 18-24 years.
Material and Methods: This prospective follow-up study included 50 Medical students having overweight of either sex (male & female) as per the inclusion criteria. Their BMI, and Lipid Profile were estimated before the start of yoga, after 6 weeks and 12 weeks of yoga practice, and their mean values were compared from baseline by using student t-Test, and correlation was done by using Pearson correlation test.
Results: Statistically significant decreased mean values of BMI, TC, TG, LDL, and VLDL were recorded when compared from baseline. Pearson’s correlation coefficient analysis between the BMI, TC and TG at three levels of yoga practice was statistically significant.
Conclusion: Yoga therapy is useful to overcome the complications of obesity. It is one of the non-pharmacological and cost-effective therapies to maintain better health by regulating BMI and other biochemical functions of the body.

The key factor of death in India is the enormous increase of coronary artery diseases. The blood
pressure smoking diabetes serum cholesterol asthma and body mass index are the major cad risk factors in the indian population. Life pattern patterns socio-economic status and vascular disorder such as artery atherosclerosis play a crucial role in the development of cardiovascular disorders aside from these hereditary influences. As the main blood vessels that supply our heart with blood oxygen and nutrients get damaged coronary artery disease occurs. For coronary artery disease, cholesterol-containing de- posits plaque in arteries and inflammation are typically observed. The goal of this paper is to assess the effectiveness of the Naturopathy and Mediation program in coronary atherosclerosis regression and cardiac injury reduction in an open study. Naturopathy diet salt minimal high-fiber vegetarian diet mild yoga and stress relief by rajyoga meditation was given to one hundred Angio graphically effected mild to extreme coronary artery atherosclerosis patients. Training in self-responsibility healthy and self-empowerment through the inner approach to self-consciousness using Rajyoga meditation is its most prominent aspect. After a 90-day inhouse reassessment and specialized preparation patients are invited for one year of follow-up. All the patients were assessed at the end of 3 months to undergo repeat angiography. Our goal in this study is to study the overall positive adjustments in physio- logical biochemical and psychological parameters of cardiac patients closely linked to the program of Naturopathy and meditation. The  study involved 200 patients with suspicious cad and one-year follow-up with clinical results from the coronary ct Angiography examination.

The potpourri of Indian culture is deciphered by identifying certain popular visual elements that are a part of our everyday experiences. These elements define our perception and comprehension of that which is ubiquitously Indian. There is an assortment of factors that influences their evolution whilst preserving their indigenous essence. Changing visual technology is one such prominent factor that has defined and redefined cultural value systems in India. This paper essentially deals with how certain cultural ideas in India have been visually transformed through influence of global interventions, while retaining their core essence with change in technology. Phenomenological analysis based on the Gestalt theory of perception has been adopted to decipher the meaning of visuals. Random sampling of popular contemporary visuals which exuberate cultural values or practices have been compared with images from past that are engraved in the collective memory of people. This paper is an attempt to introduce a methodology on how the chosen historical segregations of visuals can be compared to contemporary visual art forms; and interpretations can be done for further investigation of meanings in art, culture and society for future generations of artists, academicians &practitioners.
