Abstract

Using an exploratory phenomenological qualitative research design, this study investigated the lived experiences of 10 school counselors who integrate yoga into their comprehensive school counseling programs. Analysis of data revealed five significant themes and subsequent subthemes describing the participants' lived experiences of yoga integration within their school counseling programs. We include implications for research and practice.
