Yoga at work can help you manage the daily grind
by Mike Adams, the Health Ranger, NaturalNews Editor
Helen Goldstein, director of the Yoga Studio in Toronto, takes you through shoulder shrugs and various office yoga exercises that can relieve your stress while still on the job.
Do you have sore shoulders, wrists that ache, neck pain or just general stress?
Use these simple weekly yoga postures to help you create a better day.
Just a few minutes throughout your workday will make a big difference!
As you start each stretch, remember to take nice deep breaths and be aware of your body.
Inhale as you lift your shoulders to your ears.
Circle your shoulders back slowly and then forward.
As you go through these postures, remember that safety comes first.
You might feel uncomfortable, which is natural; pain, however, is not OK.
It is your body telling you to stop.
Helen Goldstein is director/owner of The Yoga Studio in Toronto.
