Summary

RATIONALE: Yoga and wellness classes may reduce fatigue and improve mood, sleep, and quality of life in women receiving chemotherapy for breast cancer. It is not yet known whether yoga is more effective than wellness education for women with breast cancer who are undergoing chemotherapy.

PURPOSE: This randomized phase II trial is studying a community-based yoga class to see how well it works compared with an educational wellness class for women with stage I, stage II, or stage III breast cancer undergoing chemotherapy.
