Impact of psycho-neurobics on mental well-being of adolescents

Adolescence is a crucial phase of human development marked by rapid physical, emotional, and psychological changes. During this period, adolescents are particularly vulnerable to stress, anxiety, and emotional imbalance, which can negatively affect their mental well-being. In recent years, increasing attention has been given to holistic and non-pharmacological approaches for promoting adolescent mental health. Psycho-neurobics is an emerging mind–body approach that integrates mental exercises, breathing techniques, relaxation, and meditative practices to enhance psychological functioning. This review article aims to examine existing literature on the impact of psycho-neurobics on the mental well-being of adolescents. The review highlights the conceptual basis of psycho-neurobics, its influence on emotional regulation, stress reduction, cognitive functioning, and overall psychological health. Evidence suggests that psycho-neurobics may serve as a beneficial complementary strategy for improving adolescent mental well-being; however, further rigorous research is required to establish its effectiveness and standardise intervention protocols.
