<p>The current study examines the relationships between frequency of yoga practice and outcomes
of self-compassion, couple satisfaction, and family functioning. Yoga and other forms of Eastern
medicine have become increasingly popular in Western culture. Not only has yoga become more
appealing to the general population, it has also become more widely accepted and has been more
frequently integrated into various mental health treatments. Using a cross-sectional design, this
study analyzed data from an online questionnaire regarding systemic outcomes of yoga
participants (N = 115). A three-step hierarchical regression analysis was completed to test
significance between predictor and outcome variables. The results showed a significant
relationship between social reason for practicing yoga and family functioning. This study
indicates that families who practice yoga together may have healthier family functioning. The
results highlight the potential of yoga as a therapeutic intervention for clinicians working with
families.<br>
