CNN Reports on the Benefits of Office Yoga®

It’s no surprise at this point that the “sedentary workforce” is feeling the dangers of prolonged sitting at work. For those who are desk bound, many have symptoms of back pain, anxiety, neck pain, poor posture and much more. I see it in my students when teaching our signature OYO Flow class. When I ask for requests I usually hear “lower back, neck, shoulders and hips.”

CNN Reports the Benefits of Office Yoga®

I am happy to see that CNN has reported the ease and benefits of Office Yoga® at the workplace. “You can easily integrate yoga into your workday in subtle ways that deliver big benefits — without freaking out your co-workers or requiring pretzel-like flexibility.” Check out the benefits of Office Yoga® and some easy postures you can do right at your desk!

A few benefit highlights:

  • Your breath has a positive effect on the parts of your brain associated with attention monitoring and working memory.
  • Lowers blood pressure, heart rate and stress hormone production; improves concentration, memory and ability to multitask.
  • Increases midback mobility and releases overworked upper back and neck muscles; promotes proper shoulder blade positioning for better posture.
