There are many different styles of modern hatha yoga that are incorporated into YBIs, and different styles place differential emphasis on thethreemostcommoncomponentsofYBIs:breathing,meditation,and postures. This variability in yoga styles is reflected in the yoga literature, which is marked by significant heterogeneity in the types of yoga interventions studied.18,19 Evenwithinaparticularstyle, yogapractices can differ based on the particular teacher and the composition of the class. Additionally, the majority ofreports on YBIs do not provide much information about the interventions themselves or the emphasis placed on different components of the practice.20,22 Some researchers have attempted to develop standardized yoga protocols to facilitate the comparison of findings across studies.23,24 However, these interventions may not reflect how yoga is taught outside of research settings, in that most community classes do not adhere to strict standardized protocols. Thus, the generalizability of findings from highly standardized interventions may not reflect the way yoga is naturalistically practiced in community settings. Such variability, combined with the multidimensional nature of YBIs, makes it difficult to compare findings across studies and also limits our ability to determine what styles of yoga practice, and what specific components of yoga practice, may be particularly effective in the treatment of depression. Efficacy studies designed to determine the effects of YBIs in controlled settings should be followed by effectiveness studies to evaluate the interventions’ performance in the real world.25 While some preliminary evidence suggests that different yoga styles are equally effective in reducing symptom burden across a range of psychiatric and physical disorders, few studies directly compare the efficacy of different styles of yoga and different yoga components (i.e., mindfulness, breath, and postures) in reducing symptoms of depression.26 Individual preferences must be considered when recommending certain styles of yoga to clients. Evidence from the exercise literature suggests that individual preferences for certain types of exercise is associated with actual exercise use,27 and the same could be true with yoga practice. While it might not be desirable to standardize the delivery of YBIs in the community, researchers should strive to increase transparency about YBIs in the reporting of research. Studies may also compare yoga components or styles and evaluate whether preferences play a role in continued practice and/or antidepressant effects. One advancement to address the heterogeneity of yoga interventions and facilitate more detailed reporting on YBIs in the literature is the development of the Essential Properties of Yoga Questionnaire (EYPQ).28 The EYPQ-2 (27 questions) and EYPQ-4 (59 questions) provide researchers with tools to describe and quantify the various components of different YBIs, thus facilitating the comparison of findings across studies and guiding the descriptions of YBIs in the literature.
