Abstract

The extensive propagation of yoga, once reserved for isolated spiritual communities, has brought several advantages as more and more people have gained access to a holistic well-being system. Nonetheless, while many individuals have benefited from the influence of yoga, lax application of its various regimens has resulted in a hike in yoga-related injuries. The following paper explores current AI tools for yoga and then elucidates the physical, psychological, and long-term adverse effects of improper yoga practice, with supporting data and statistics. Furthermore, it suggests an AI-equipped application that alters the potential of injuries arising from incorrect body movements during yoga. Next, particular technical features of the app are enumerated, demonstrating how machine learning aids in data analytics to prevent misapplication and take care of user privacy issues. Finally, the challenges of the proposed solution's adoption, usability, and ethical usage are addressed, and suggestions are offered to circumvent such hurdles.
