Effect Of Selected Yoga Module on The Level of Quality of Life (Qol) Of Drug Addicts in Rehabilitation Center

The abuse of drugs and other substances has developed into a pervasive problem that poses a risk to society. It is hard for any country to completely eliminate the problems that are related with drug addiction due to the large number of components that are involved. Nevertheless, in order to maintain their status as responsible societies, all communities, nations, and governments must acknowledge the existence of social evil and not choose to ignore it. According to the findings of a comprehensive study that looked at the activities that are provided at rehabilitation centers, the positive impacts that physical exercise has on the recovery process are not given nearly enough consideration. The purpose of this investigation is to determine whether or not Yoga therapy is effective in the treatment of drug addicts. The investigation will be exploratory in nature. After randomly allocating 60 male volunteers to either an experimental or a control group, a treatment plan consisting of either Yoga or a traditional de-addiction program was provided to each of them to engage in for a period of twelve weeks. The duration of the Yoga treatment programe was the same. The WHO -QoL questionnaire were used to measure the outcomes of the study. In the group that took part in the Yoga therapy program, there was a significantly higher incidence of observations that met the criteria for statistical significance. The results of this study suggest that Yoga therapy is an effective way for helping those who have struggled with substance misuse recover.


INTRODUCTION
The abuse of drugs and other substances has developed into a pervasive problem that poses a risk to society. It is hard for any country to completely eliminate the problems that are related with drug addiction due to the large number of components that are involved. Nevertheless, in order to maintain their status as responsible societies, all communities, nations, and governments must acknowledge the existence of social evil and not choose to ignore it. An addiction to drugs may be broken down into a number of phases, all of which result in the behavior of relapsing, which is typical of the illness. It is possible that the dopaminergic mesocorticolimbic (MCL) system plays a significant role in the process of developing a dependency on drugs. It is hypothesized to have a role in reward-related associative learning, reinforcement, and motivational salience, which is why this is the case. Between the years 1870 and 1900, the great majority of those who practiced medicine believed that addiction was either a pathological appetite, a routine, or a terrible habit. Around the turn of the century, doctors and other medical experts began classifying the illness as a disease for the first time. It is impossible to untangle the conditions that surround a person's drug usage from the desire that leads them to take drugs in the first place. This is because the two are inextricably linked. The repeated findings that the same people may get addicted to many things, either simultaneously, sequentially, or alternatively, present the strongest argument in favor of the idea that addictiveness is a personality feature that is distinct to each individual. However, following that, they relate these behavioral disorders to other constructs, such as tolerance and withdrawal, both of which are believed to have a basis in biology. In 1964, the World Health Organization Expert Committee on Addiction-Producing Drugs was renamed the World Health Organization Expert Committee of Dependence-Producing Drugs. Previously, its name had been the World Health Organization Expert Committee on Drugs That Produce Addiction. The pharmacological properties of some drugs will undoubtedly cause the user to become physically dependent on the medication if it is used in sufficient doses for a lengthy period of time. Psychic dependence, despite the fact that it is also associated with pharmacological activity, is more particularly a manifestation of a person's reaction to the effects of a particular drug, and it varies depending on both the individual and the substance. The individual's response to the side effects of a particular medicine might manifest itself as psychological reliance on that substance. According to this model, the psychological reliance is the factor that contributes the most significantly to the persistent intoxication that results from the inappropriate use of psychotropic drugs. This is true even in the case of the most intense desires and the persistent maintenance of addictive behavior. It has been observed quite frequently that the treatment and rehabilitation programs that are provided by various rehabilitation centers place a greater emphasis on the administration of medication for treatment as opposed to treatment and rehabilitation measures such as counseling, religious prayer sessions, the pursuit of hobbies, and dietary measures. This is something that has been observed rather frequently. A regular practice of Yoga can bring about mental clarity and tranquility, build bodily awareness, reduce chronic stress patterns, calm the mind, concentrate attention, and sharpen concentration. Yoga can also bring about mental clarity and tranquilly through developing body awareness. Yoga has also been shown to help alleviate patterns of chronic stress. As a result, the goal of this research is to explore the impact that Yogic treatment has on the mindset of drug users as well as their sense of self-confidence. In total, one hundred and twenty drug addicts who were getting treatment at the Shimla Rehabilitation Center provided their feedback for this study. The subjects of experimental group kept on the Yogic intervention throughout the study.

EXCLUSION CRITERIA -
The subjects will be excluded with cardiac, renal, hepatic or any other dangerous health complication. -Subjects with major psychological problems will be avoided. -Subjects with unwillingness to participate in experimental intervention.

EXPERIMANTAL DESIGN
In this study, two groups "Pre" and "Post" design will be adopted which has been displayed in Table-1. In this design, a control group has been considered not only for comparative purpose but also to eliminate the testing sensitivity (if any).

DISCUSSION-
The following is a list of some of the categories that were utilized during the process of data analysis and presentation. The distribution of the various demographic characteristics of Drug Addicts' customers is shown in Table 1. In terms of age, the plurality of people in the experimental group, 36 (60%), belonged to the age range of 30-40 years, while 20 (33%) belonged to the age range of Above 20 years, and 4 (7%), belonged to the age range of 20 years. The majority of the people in the control group were between the ages of 30 and 40 (57%) and above 20 (43%) years old. (Fig. 2)  In terms of their religious beliefs, the majority of those in the experimental group were Hindus (84%), while only 13% were Christians and 3% were Muslims. Within the control group, the plurality, 48 (80%), adhered to Hinduism. Only 8 (13%) Christians and 4 (7%) Muslims made up this group. (Fig. 2)  In terms of schooling, the majority of people in the experimental group had attended a higher level of secondary school (24, or forty percent), elementary school (22, or thirty seven percent), and college (14, or twenty three percent). The majority of people in the control group, 22 (37%) had completed higher secondary school, 22 (37%) held a bachelor's degree, 14 (23%) had completed elementary school, and 2 (3% do not have any official education). (Fig. 3)  In terms of employment, the majority of people in the experimental group, 36 (60%), worked for themselves as self-employed people, while 12 (20%) worked for the government, 8 (13%) worked for private companies, and 4 (7% were unemployed). The plurality of people in the control group, 36, were self-employed, while 14 (23%) were employed in the commercial sector, and 10 (17%) worked for the government. (Fig. 4)   Figure 4 displays the percentage distribution of drug addicts according to their employment in both the test group and the control group.    In terms of monthly revenue, the majority of people in the experimental group, 42 (70%) of the group had between Rs.5000 and Rs.15000, 14 (23%) of the group had less than Rs.5000, and only 4 (7% of the group) had more than Rs.15000. In the control group, the plurality of participants, 26 (43%) of the group had between Rs. 5000 and Rs. 15000, while 18 (30%) of the participants had more than Rs. 15000, and 16 (27%) of the participants had less than Rs. 5000. (Fig. 6)   According to what is shown in Table 7, the majority of people in the experimental group at the time of the pretest had a satisfactory quality of life, ten (17%) of them had an extremely satisfactory quality of life, and ten (

CONCLUSION
The purpose of this study was to investigate whether or not the addition of a Yoga therapy program to conventional de-addiction programs, as well as the impacts of conventional de-addiction programs on their own, had a positive impact on the participants' levels of Quality of Life and whether or not these advantages could be achieved by Yoga therapy alone. This conclusion may be suitably related to the facts that a well-planned Yoga treatment program does increase every system of human functioning and biological structure by creating a rise in working ability evident via fitness growth. This development may be seen as proof of the beneficial effects of Yoga. The fact that Yoga therapy is beneficial to several different systems, including the musculoskeletal system, the cardio respiratory system, the neurological system, and the internal digestive system, is something that has been well researched and proven. In this specific study, we were solely interested in assessing psychological features as opposed to testing physical and physiological factors such as the participant's heart rate, the quantity of physical activity they got, and so on. According to the findings of a study that was carried out by Alogian, the immediate effect of a single session of Yoga therapy that lasted for thirty minutes had a favorable influence on changes in mood as well as patterns of behaviour. Recent studies that were conducted over the course of a month found that practicing Yoga was good for a variety of reasons, including boosting one's selfconfidence and improving one's attitude.
