Summary

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the feasibility of conducting a future randomized control trial that will compare the efficacy of sleep behavioral interventions in a high-risk community including adapted sleep hygiene and yoga. The investigators will conduct a 40 person 12-week randomized control trial (RCT) in low-income housing population where half the participants will receive a community adapted sleep hygiene intervention (SH) and half will receive a community adapted sleep hygiene intervention and a yoga intervention. The investigators will evaluate the feasibility of recruiting from our target community, randomizing individuals to interventions delivered in community rooms with home-based practices, and delivering the targeted interventions with high adherence and fidelity.
