<![CDATA[Psychological changes in pregnant women in each trimester often cause significant anxiety. However, many pregnant women do not yet know about non-pharmacological efforts to overcome this anxiety. This study aimed to evaluate the effectiveness of prenatal gentle yoga and Nadhi Sodhana breathing techniques in reducing anxiety in pregnant women. This study used a one group pre-test and post-test design. Before the intervention, a pre-test was conducted to assess the level of anxiety using the Perinatal Anxiety Screening Scale (PASS). After that, participants were given intervention in the form of prenatal gentle yoga and Nadhi Sodhana breathing techniques for 4 weeks with a frequency of 2 times a week. After the intervention, a post-test was conducted to evaluate changes in anxiety levels. The results showed a significant decrease in the level of anxiety in pregnant women after the intervention. Based on the pre-test results, most respondents (33.3%) experienced mild anxiety. After the intervention, the post-test results showed that most participants (33.3%) did not experience anxiety. Data analysis using paired samples t-test showed a significant difference with a p value = 0.000.
