TLDR : Answer Summary
The Wellness category associated with the DTV visa in Thailand covers a variety of activities aimed at health and well-being, including yoga, meditation, counseling, and other non-medical treatments. However, the approval of these activities can vary depending on the embassy's policies. While some individuals were not initially aware of this wellness addition to their visa, it can be beneficial for those seeking holistic or non-traditional therapies as part of their stay.
you seem to misunderstand the DTV issued on a "soft power". You cannot work on it inside Thailand. You are supposed to attend seminars, classes and schools. As attendances aren't checked by Immigration, you are litterally free to live, but not allowed to work.
UK. I originally applied under the soft power medical category. i was unaware that this cagegory also included wellness until my visa was approved.

I wasn’t aware that you could apply under the medical and wellness category, as my embassy never mentioned it. I recently came across an article that said it’s possible to do so for yoga and meditation, but I wasn’t sure if it was actually allowed.
It depends on the embassy if they approve it. Yoga can be used as part of a medical treatment program. Yoga for basic health/fun will unlikely get approved.
