Both age groups also demonstrated improvements in QOL (3.2 ± 0.8, <em>p</em> &lt; 0.001 vs. 2.1 ± 1.2, <em>p</em> = 0.078), physical (1.6 ± 0.3, <em>p</em> &lt; 0.001 vs. 0.8 ± 0.5, <em>p</em> = 0.084), functional (0.7 ± 0.3, <em>p</em> = 0.048 vs. 1.0 ± 0.5, <em>p</em> = 0.037), and emotional well-being. There were no significant between-group differences between the age groups. Most younger and older participants reported that yoga helped improve their sleep quality (92.8 % vs 88.5 %) and they would recommend it to other survivors (98.2 % vs 90.4 %).</div></div><div><h3>Discussion</h3><div>Older cancer survivors who undergo gentle Hatha and restorative yoga performed two to three times per week for four weeks at a low to moderate level of intensity have similar improvements in CRF and QOL compared to participants aged ≤59.
