Yoga at the Office

US Paywizard.org - Find out more about yoga at work.

It is no surprise that sitting at a desk all day is not good for your health. It is easy to get absorbed in computer work, without the breaks you should take, finishing the day with sore eyes and stiff shoulders. 

You can start to de-stress yourself at work already with some office yoga exercises in the links below - all poses that won't freak out your coworkers, they can continue their call uninterrupted and you get a midday feel good stretch that will leave you relaxed and energized. The exercises won't take a lot of time - about ten minutes - and you can split them up over the day if that is more convenient. Don't forget to remove tight, uncomfortable shoes and loosen your tie and belt, before you start.
