Stroke is a serious disease that fundamentally changes the habitual life of the patient and their family [1, 2]. It is commonly believed that the consequences of a stroke are only impairment of limb motor functions, but this is not quite true, because the changes that occur after a stroke are a consequence of brain damage. Certainly, the consequences of the disease affect a number of functions of the patient, and such emotional characteristics as anxiety, worries and doubts, apathy and lack of motivation always accompany post-stroke patients [3, 4]. Return to normal life directly depends on the psychological state of the patient, their emotional disposition and great personal desire. It is also important to consider the recovery period in terms of preventing a recurrent stroke, which unfortunately is quite common, and the recovery from this condition is greatly complicated by the resulting changes and side-effects. It is necessary to take action in several directions at once: change your lifestyle, reconsider your menu, exercise, monitor your health, think positively. Therefore, the use of remedies that would allow the patient to quickly restore the emotional well-being, tune in to positive thoughts and activities are relevant for today. Bright positive emotions have a favorable effect on physical and emotional health. In our study, we used means from yoga system. Yoga is the most ancient system, which has a recognized health-improving orientation. It is also worth noting that the system is aimed not only at bodily effects, but also at the technique of managing emotions [5].
