Resumen
Los estudiantes de salud presentan altos niveles de estrés ante las exigencias académicas, lo que impacta negativamente en su salud y su desempeño académico. Debido a que el estrés afecta el funcionamiento fisiológico de diferentes procesos metabólicos, hormonales e inmunológicos, se han implementado estrategias para hacerle frente, de allí que el objetivo de esta revisión de la literatura consistió en identificar la relación que existe entre la disminución del estrés acádemico y la práctica yoga en estudiantes de las áreas de la salud. Para ello, se realizó una búsqueda sistemátizada de la literatura, mediante la declaración PRISMA, en la base bibliográfica Medline a través del uso de los descriptores en salud “stress” y “yoga”. Después de la identificación, selección y elección, fueron incluidos 18 artículos en la discusión. Se concluyó que la práctica de yoga disminuye el estrés percibido en la medida que aumenta el bienestar físico y mental.
