Brief Summary:
The aim of the study, which aimed to examine the effect of the Qigong relaxation exercise applied in psychiatry clinics on the level of anxiety, was planned as randomized controlled. Individuals will be divided into intervention and control groups. Before the application, the Personal Information Form and STAI Form I scale will be applied to the patients in the Intervention and Control group. Patients in the intervention group are expected to answer the STAI Form I scale after qigong relaxation exercises. It planned to apply the same forms as planned in the intervention group without any application in the control group. Personal Information Form and STAI Form I Scale will be filled by the patients in the form of self-report.

| Psychiatric Disorder | Behavioral: Qi-gong relaxation exercise | Not Applicable |
Anxiety is one of the most common and compelling symptoms in individuals receiving treatment in psychiatry clinics. The issue of managing anxiety is very important in psychiatry clinics. Various pharmacological, physical, and therapeutic methods are applied to reduce and manage these symptoms. In addition to pharmacologically applied medical treatment, non-drug applications used as supportive are recommended in terms of reducing the symptoms of the disease and increasing the quality of life of the individual. These non-drug methods are; aromatherapy, physical exercise, light therapy, and music therapy. physical exercise; It is defined as planned, structured, repetitive movements to promote or maintain physical and mental health. Aerobics (brisk walking, dancing, cycling), endurance and resistance (squeezing rubber balls using elastic resistance bands and lifting weights), and flexibility and balance exercises (qigong, yoga, and pilates) are examples of physical exercises. In the literature, the effect of Qigong practices on anxiety in many patient groups has been examined, but no study has been found on the effect of Qigong relaxation exercises on the level of anxiety in inpatient psychiatric patients. Therefore, this study aims to examine the effect of Qigong relaxation exercises applied in the psychiatry clinic on the anxiety level of patients. Patients will be divided into intervention and control groups in a randomized controlled manner. After obtaining ethics committee approvals for the intervention group, clinics will be informed about the Qigong relaxation exercises study and it will be planned to place this study in the daytime program with the clinicians. The most appropriate time for patients to practice qigong relaxation exercises was determined after the morning meeting. No qigong exercise will be performed for the control group. Before the application, the Personal Information Form, STAI Form I, will be applied to the patients in the Intervention and Control group. Patients in the intervention group are expected to answer the STAI Form I scale after qigong relaxation exercises. It planned to apply the same forms as planned in the intervention group without any application in the control group. Personal Information Form and STAI Form I Scale will be filled by the patients in the form of self-report. The practice of the qigong relaxation exercise will take place after the good morning meetings. Qigong relaxation exercise is a mindfulness-based exercise and is a type of exercise consisting of body movements and relaxation in harmony with breathing used to relax the body and mind, reduce stress, distract attention from negative thoughts, accelerate blood flow, and improve emotions. It is planned to apply this exercise once for 40 minutes to the patients included in the intervention group as a group activity by researchers trained on this subject.

Primary Outcome Measures :
- Personal Information Form [ Time Frame: three month ]The personal information form was created by the researchers and includes demographic information and information about the disease. Demographic information consists of seven questions about age, gender, marital status, educational status, employment status, with whom she lives and whether she has a visitor in the clinic. Information about the disease; It consists of eight questions about psychiatric diagnosis, symptoms of hospitalization, duration of illness, number of hospitalizations, drugs used, whether ECT was applied, whether chemical and isolation practices were applied.
- STAI Anxiety Scale I [ Time Frame: three month ]Developed by Spielberger in 1970, its Turkish version was developed by Öner N et al. The validity and reliability study was carried out by adapting it. It is a likert type scale that measures state anxiety levels with 20 questions. Anxiety level is scored as "(1) not at all, (2) a little, (3) a lot, and (4) completely" in STAI-I. Direct statements on the scale, negative emotions; reversed expressions express positive emotions. Two separate total score weights are calculated for each of the direct and reversed statements. The total score for the reverse statements is subtracted from the total score for the direct statements. A predetermined and unchanging value is added to this number. A constant value of 50 was added to the number obtained for STAI-I. The most recent value indicates the individual's anxiety score. The scores obtained from the scale range from 20 to 80. A high score indicates a high level of anxiety.
