The background idea on yoga personal observance is given in the form of an aphorism in astanga yoga (eight limbed yoga). The concept on yoga personal observance scale (YPOS) is developed based on yoga books. The purpose of this paper is to develop a yoga personal observance scale using confirmatory factor analysis. A psychometric analysis of cronbach alpha, validity, reliability, correlation factor loadings, factor extraction from a uni-diagonal matrix, reduced items, fitness indices etc. We used SPSS and AMOS version 25 exploratory and confirmatory factor analyses to develop YPOS. To test the scale, we randomly selected 1,304 participants from general populations of Bhopal city, India. The developed 28-item five factor YPOS comprised standardized regression coefficients with 58.46% variance with a Cronbach's alpha of 0.76. The results of three different model Fitness categories of indexes with construct, convergent, concurrent validity were also analyzed and found to be acceptable. There is a scope for further research development in each of the eight limbed yoga practices.

In the age group of 5 to 13 years school going children there is always a fast growth of Executive Function (EF) parts of the brain. The EF growth gets shunted in the given school environment, where the growing genes of the children and their syllabus plays a major role. During this period, the children are loaded with heavy school curriculum and thus limiting the learning processes and creatively get lost in curriculum based growth. In this paper we propose to strengthen the EF functioning through a complimentary Yoga frame. This new frame gives us a protocol of yoga techniques to improve, the Attention, Adjustment and Cognitive flexibilities of the mind. Supplementation of yoga along with curriculum inculcates the habit of cognitive aspects of the brain which will make their carriers useful and betterment of the society. Yoga frame for children mediates the link between school curriculum and with EF resulting into better outputs underlying benefits of yoga.
