Dyscalculia is a mathematical learning disorder that affects an individual’s ability to understand and solve arithmetic tasks. Traditional interventions focus on educational strategies, but the role of holistic approaches persists underexplored. This narrative review examined the potential benefits of yoga-based breathing techniques and meditation in managing related cognitive and emotional functioning. A comprehensive review of the literature was conducted to gather evidence on the effects of yogic breathing techniques and meditation on learning disabilities, particularly dyscalculia. The review included studies on therapeutic yoga and mind-body practices, analyzing their impact on neurological and cognitive functions. Therapeutic yoga, incorporating various postures and breathing techniques, has shown promise in alleviating symptoms of various neurological disorders, including anxiety, depression, and stress. The holistic approach of yoga addresses physical, physiological, emotional, and spiritual well-being. Preliminary evidence suggests that these benefits might extend to individuals with dyscalculia, potentially enhancing functions such as attention and working while reducing math anxiety. While significant evidence supports the cognitive benefits of yoga therapy, its specific efficacy in improving dyscalculia requires future investigation. This review highlights the need for more targeted research to establish standardized protocols and validate the integration of yogic breathing techniques and meditation as complementary therapies in dyscalculia management.
