Method: A literature review was conducted using the Google Scholar, PubMed, and Science Direct databases (2018–2024). After screening and quality assessment (critical appraisal), nine studies (including RCTs, quasi-experimental, and pre-experimental designs) were analysed narratively. Result: The results consistently showed that prenatal yoga was effective in reducing anxiety levels significantly. There was also evidence of a reduction in depressive symptoms and an improvement in quality of life. Although there were differences in the studies' methodological quality, there was no negative impact were discovered.
