The study explores how different treatment systems—yoga, Ayurveda, and antidepressant medications—can be combined in a step-by-step approach. This means the treatment can be changed or adjusted over time depending on how each person responds. For example, if a person does not improve with one treatment, another option may be added or modified. This flexible method is called a “dynamic treatment approach,” and it aims to find the most suitable combination of treatments for each individual.

The study also examines how these treatments influence the body, such as brain activity and heart rate variability.

Overall, this study aims to pave the way for more personalized, evidence-based, and integrative mental health care.
