  • Only yoga nidra will not be applied to the control group. Other measurements and follow-ups will be carried out in parallel as in the experimental group.

Data collection tools:

  • Introductory Information Form
  • Visual Analogue Scale for Pain
  • Patient Mobility Scale and Observer Mobility Scale
  • Newcastle Satisfaction with Nursing Care Scale
  • Note: Mobilisation distance will be measured with a metre.

Measurement time:

  • Introductory Information Form will be filled out before application.
  • Pain level will be measured immediately before the application.
  • immediately after the application pain, mobilisation, first walking distance and maternal satisfaction will be measured.

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • yoga nidraBehavioural

    Yoga Nidra is a guided meditation technique that involves listening to audio readings. Yoga nidra application will be started at the 6th postoperative hour and will be applied one time. Yoga nidra is expressed as yoga sleep or deep relaxation. In this practice, it will be ensured that the mother will mentally visualise all parts of her body with the commands to be given during controlled breathing and emotionally feel the body parts. The Yoga Nidra application will last 30 minutes.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Cesarean Pain

    Visual Analogue Scale for Pain; It scores between 0 and 10, and the higher the score, the greater the pain.

    Measured: immediately before yoga nidra application

  2. Cesarean Pain

    Visual Analogue Scale for Pain

    Measured: immediately after yoga nidra application

  3. Patient Mobilization

    Patient Mobility Scale; The lowest and highest score that can be obtained from each item is between 0-15, and the total score is between 0-120. An increase in scale scores for the question answers in the study indicates an increase in pain and stiffness related to activity.

    Measured: immediately after yoga nidra application

  4. Observer Mobilization

    Observer Mobility Scale; The lowest and highest score that can be obtained from each item of the scale is between 1-5, and the total score is between 4-20. An increase in the score indicates insufficient mobility.

    Measured: immediately after yoga nidra application

  5. Patient Satisfaction

    Newcastle Satisfaction with Nursing Care Scale

    Measured: immediately after yoga nidra application

  6. Walking distance

    The first walking distance of the mothers will be measured with a meter.

    Measured: immediately after yoga nidra application
