I am exploring the application of game-based digital platforms (e.g., mobile and PC yoga games) in the context of Yoga therapy, education, and engagement. With the growing popularity of gamification in health and wellness, several yoga-themed games like Yoga Master, Couples Yoga, and others are now available across PC, mobile, and console platforms.
This raises a few important research questions:
- What is the therapeutic potential of yoga-based games for physical or mental health intervention?
- How can game mechanics (e.g., feedback loops, rewards, progression) be optimized to enhance motivation, adherence, and learning in yoga?
- Are there existing studies that evaluate clinical efficacy or behavioral outcomes from game-based yoga apps or platforms?
- What role can AI and computer vision play in real-time pose detection, correction, and personalization within these gamified systems?
- How can such platforms address accessibility issues for populations with low digital literacy or physical limitations?
If anyone is working in the fields of digital health, human-computer interaction, yoga therapy, or serious games, I would love to hear about your insights, studies, or relevant frameworks.
Game-based digital platforms boost Yoga practice by increasing motivation, active participation, and learning through interactive elements like rewards and challenges. Such engagement leads to improved well-being, mental health, and greater adherence, enhancing therapeutic outcomes for diverse users. The combination of gamification and Yoga instruction creates an enjoyable, accessible, and effective environment for holistic improvement
