yoga for the workplace.

Research shows that work-related stress and dissatisfaction are two leading causes of mental and physical ill-health in the UK. The average person spends approximately 80,000 hours in the workplace over their lifetime, making it crucial for companies to prioritize employee wellbeing.
Happier employees are 20% more productive, 34% less likely to leave their jobs, and 37% less likely to take time off sick. Yoga and mindfulness are proven methods to help employees maintain stress and anxiety levels under control. While there is no magic behind these practices, they help cultivate awareness, moment-by-moment, without judgment and with acceptance.

1 breath-work
breath is the most vital process of the body. it influences the activity of each and every cell, and most importantly, is intimately linked with the performance of the brain. most people breathe incorrectly, using a small part of their lungs capacity. the practice of breathwork prepares to correct breathing. in addition, it helps with the awareness of the breathing process, which is normally ignored and bring a sense of calm and relaxation.
2 gentle movement
body movements allow releasing our tensions and spread endorphins all around our body communicating a sense of contentment and a reduction of muscle tensions and cortisol levels (our stress hormone).
gentle Vinyasa Yoga or Chair Yoga can be performed literally anywhere in the office.
3 mindful meditations
how many times a day do busy people allow themself to stop, in silence and stillness? mindful meditations aid people to feel, examine and observe some inner sensations and place space between the external world and thoughts, without trying to alter them. mindfulness eliminates daily pressures by enabling the employee to take a streamlined approach to their workflow resulting in greater productivity. this equals less stress but the ability to work more efficiently.
