Theoretical and practical aspects of yoga, including its history, philosophy, and various styles. Anatomy and physiology of the human body, with a focus on the musculoskeletal and nervous systems. Techniques for teaching yoga postures (asanas), breathing exercises (pranayama), and meditation. Principles of Ayurveda, the ancient Indian system of medicine, and its relationship with yoga. Research methods and evidence-based practices for yoga and meditation. Ethics and professionalism in the yoga teaching profession. Techniques for managing stress, anxiety, and other mental health conditions through yoga and meditation. Overall, the programme aims to provide students with a deep understanding of the principles and practices of yoga and meditation, as well as the skills necessary to effectively teach these practices to others.

Geography was the most preferred subject among the optional subjects chosen by the candidates, followed by Political Science & International Relations and Sociology. Sociology can help in the ethics paper as well with its focus on human nature, behaviour and society. This subject also helps to a great extent in writing on social issues topics in the GS and essay papers. Political Science and sociology has most importance in their own fields but taking sociology is better for both UPSC and PG. Because as per previous years trends the sociology students are qualified in UPSC exam than the political Science. But better go for your interested one between these subjects.
