Abstract | Evaluated a 10-week yoga program with 61 White and 45 low-income Black elders and a control group. Results showed White elders attended class regularly, practiced daily, improved psychological well-being, and lowered their blood pressure level. Black elders attended regularly but did not practice or improve well-being. (JAC) |
