The domain of the study was formed with the patients at adult burn unit of a university. One hundred ten patients participated in the study. The data were collected using the Self-Description Form, the Rosenberg Self-Esteem Scale, and the Body Image Scale. RESULTS: After yoga practice, there was a statistically significant increase and improvement in the self-esteem and body image of the experimental group (p < 0.05).
