What does yoga do to your brain? EEG research — including a real-time study using the Enobio device across 41 yoga poses — shows that yoga produces a measurable, distinct neural state. Alpha brain wave activity increases significantly during practice, and machine learning models can distinguish yoga from rest with 94% accuracy. Here is what the neuroscience says.
