 Abstract

The practice of yoga is an ancient tradition with deep roots in history. Many monks and saints have historically perceived the world through the profound insights gained from yogic power. Both Buddhist and Hindu cultures have long recognized the significance of yoga, urging their adherents to embrace its principles. Medical scientists assert that yoga helps synchronize the various parts of the body, enabling them to function optimally. As it is widely understood, the mind governs the entire body, directing the function of each part. Consistent practice of Asanas (postures), Pranayama (breathing techniques), and Meditation fortifies both the body and the mind. Yoga helps alleviate mental stress, promoting a state of tranquility. Contemporary experts uphold a strong belief in the efficacy of yoga for shielding individuals from the negative influences of society. Yoga is thus regarded as a potent means to gain mastery over the mind and sustain a peaceful life, which is especially crucial in today's fast-paced world. This detailed study explores the impact of yoga practice on the treatment of psychosomatic disorders, drawing on insights from previous research.

 Abstract

Yoga, an ancient practice originating from India, has gained significant attention in contemporary research for its diverse benefits across multiple dimensions of human health and well-being. This paper presents a comprehensive review of the extensive research conducted on yoga, focusing on its profound impacts on physical health, mental well-being, and overall quality of life. In terms of physical health, numerous studies have demonstrated that regular practice of yoga leads to improvements in flexibility, strength, cardiovascular function, and respiratory efficiency. Yoga postures (asanas) and breathing exercises (pranayama) contribute synergistically to enhancing musculoskeletal health and reducing the risk of chronic conditions such as hypertension, diabetes, and arthritis. Beyond physical and mental health, yoga has been found to enhance overall quality of life by fostering a sense of inner peace, mindfulness, and spiritual connection. Studies suggest that mindfulness-based practices within yoga, such as meditation and relaxation techniques, not only alleviate psychological distress but also enhance cognitive function and resilience to stress

 Abstract

Anxiety disorders are prevalent mental health conditions that significantly impair individuals' daily functioning and overall well-being. Breathing techniques have been increasingly recognized as effective non-pharmacological interventions for managing anxiety. This descriptive study explores the impact of eight different breathing techniques on anxiety reduction: Diaphragmatic Breathing, Ujjayi Breath, NadiShodhana, Kapalabhati, Bhramari, Sheetali, AnulomVilom, and SamaVritti. Through a comprehensive review of literature and empirical analysis, the study examines the physiological and psychological effects of each technique. Participants diagnosed with generalized anxiety disorder (GAD) engaged in daily 15-minute sessions of assigned breathing techniques over four weeks. Anxiety levels were assessed using the State-Trait Anxiety Inventory (STAI) before and after the intervention. The findings reveal that all breathing techniques contribute to significant reductions in anxiety, with variations in effectiveness. Diaphragmatic Breathing, Ujjayi Breath, Nadi Shodhana, Bhramari, Sheetali, and SamaVritti emerged as the most effective techniques. The study underscores the potential of these breathing practices as accessible and effective tools for anxiety management. Further research is recommended to explore the long-term benefits and underlying mechanisms of these techniques to enhance their application in therapeutic settings.

 Abstract

The automotive industry occupies a significant place in the Indian economy. The well-developed industry acts as a catalyst and gives energy to the economic growth of the country and also increased accidents to the workers due to work place hazards. In the manufacturing of auto components carries with them workplace hazards, the hazards and risks connected with welding operations, Cleaning and Machining operation in manufacturing industry was identified and controlled using risk matrix techniques. The findings reveal that major tasks were associated with the events of material handling, machine operation, maintenance of any machinery, packing and housekeeping. Hazards of varying degrees were identified and the associated risk was classified with trivalent risk, Low risk, Medium risk, High risk, Very high risk. The tasks carried out with those hazards and risks are suggested with control measures and recommendations.

 Abstract

With the rapid advancement of science, technology, and the economy, the rapid accumulation of hazardous waste has become one of the most common environmental issues confronting the entire world. However, hazardous materials with toxic, corrosive, flammable, reactive, and infectious properties, as well as other dangerous properties, will cause serious harm to the environment, ecology, and human health if not handled properly. As a result, hazardous waste disposal research is extremely important in practice. This paper provides a basic overview of hazardous waste, as well as the current state of hazardous waste disposal in industries. Hazardous waste is defined as waste that poses significant or potential risks to public health or the environment. Hazardous wastes can exist in a variety of physical states, including gaseous, liquids, and solids. A hazardous waste is distinct from other types of waste because It cannot be disposed of in the same manner as other byproducts of our daily lives. Treatment and solidification processes may be required depending on the physical state of the waste. The final stage of a hazardous waste management system is hazardous waste disposal. In order to have secure disposal facilities, almost all possible disposal methods require proper pre-treatment. This article summarizes the fundamentals of various waste disposal methods, including incineration, immobilization, landfill, off-shore, and underground storage. The benefits, drawbacks, and applicability to developing countries are discussed.

 Abstract

The utilization of hydrogen gas across diverse industries offers advantages alongside possible hazards. While hydrogen finds widespread industrial use as a flammable gas, mishandling it can result in catastrophic incidents. Hydrogen is also employed in the heat treatment of reactive metals, such as titanium, to prevent oxidation at high temperatures. The presence of hydrogen helps to maintain the desired metallurgical properties of these materials. Considering the significant volume of hydrogen gas used in industrial settings, it becomes imperative to effectively manage its safety to prevent accidents. To ensure the safe utilization of hydrogen gas, one strategy involves carrying out a Hazard and Operability study (HAZOP). This comprehensive examination entails recognizing potential dangers linked to the hydrogen unit and setting up effective safeguards to minimize risks. By conducting a meticulous HAZOP study, it becomes possible to pinpoint, assess, and address the inherent hazards in hydrogen gas handling through the implementation of appropriate control measures. The ultimate goal is to enhance safety protocols and minimize the likelihood of accidents or catastrophic events associated with hydrogen gas usage.

 Abstract

Safety plays an important role in human beings' life. Occupational health and safety become a vital part in every Industry. The background of this project is to condense the cause and effects in health and safety. The main objective of this paper is to identify the hazards in plating and powder coating which may affect the employer and the environment. To assess the safety means, it needs to reduce the risk everywhere, so that Hazard Identification and Risk Assessment (HIRA) can be done for working in a confined space environment in wind energy industry. To find the hazards means, then risk can be accessed from the hazards and then to analyze the severity rating for the hazards. Calculating the severity and probability of occurrence and suggesting the hazards are acceptable or not acceptable. By using the Dust exposure level meter we can evaluate the dust exposure limit while working inside blade at tolerable distance These dsut are hazardous to human health. So, we have to reduce and control the hazards by using Risk assessment. The project work focuses on using the HIRA technique on improvement of health and safety while working inside the wind blade.
