Stress is the health epidemic of the 21st century and it can affect anyone, at any time. Most of the undergraduate students experience considerable stress due to the demand associated with changes such as leaving home, becoming independent decision makers, and competing against new standards. No person is immune to stress but they can minimize the level of stress by practicing yoga regularly.
