How can yoga help?
All stress, both physical and mental, is stored somewhere in the body and true stress reduction is a matter of discovering how to release that tension on both levels. Yoga is the art and science of reducing mental and physical stress while increasing strength, flexibility, energy, and awareness.
Yoga is much more than an exercise class. It offers simple, safe, and practical techniques that quickly reduce tension and stress in your employees. Plus, it is easy to do, portable and, best of all, cost-effective. In our yoga programs, the participant will experience proven and practical techniques that can have immediate and long-term effects. They will face the workday armed with an arsenal of stress-combating exercises they can do right in the office.

Solution – Downward Facing Dog: Strengthens wrists, stretches back of legs that tighten from sitting, and eases low back pain. |
| Problem – Obesity: Approximately 58 million Americans, (about one-third) are considered obese. Obesity can lead to chronic diseases such as heart disease, diabetes, high blood pressure and stroke. It contributes to 300,000 deaths yearly. |
Solution – Warrior Pose: Strengthens muscles in arms and legs, tones abdominal organs, and balances body weight. |
| Problem – Poor Concentration: Long hours in front of the computer derails concentration, which has a direct impact on productivity. |
Solution – Tree Pose: Promotes balance and proper breathing and fosters concentration and mental quietude. |
| Problem – Head Aches: Most headaches arise from muscle tension in the back of the neck that is caused by the forward head position, with rounded shoulders and curved upper back. |
Solution – Bridge Pose: Reverses hunched position of the chest, opens lungs, and brings flexibility to the spinal muscles. |
| Problem – Poor Posture: > Improper sitting and standing posture leads to stiff necks, shoulders hunched forward or pulled tightly back, restricted breathing, and tightness in the thighs, legs, and ankles. Backaches, headaches, and other painful symptoms are often the unfortunate result. |
Solution – Mountain Pose: Fosters awareness of correct postural alignment. Tones and activates torso, back, abdomen and pelvis and stretches shoulders, arms, and wrists. |
| Problem – Low Energy Level: Continuous sitting with few breaks and limited physical activity promotes lethargy, which can effect morale and overall work attitude. |
Solution – Spread Feet Pose: Mitigates the strain of continual sitting by opening and stretching hamstrings. Also brings blood to the brain for clearer thinking. |
