Meet
April. April is a Communications consultant for the Texas Association
of School Boards. She has been taking yoga classes at work with
Yoga Yoga since 2007. |
Yoga Yoga: What do you like about having yoga at work?
April: Yoga at work is convenient. You might be too lazy to
drive from your home to a yoga studio, but it's not at all hard
to convince yourself to leave your desk for an hour.
Yoga Yoga: What benefits do you receive by doing yoga?
April: I work out six days a week and tend to skip the stretching...

Taking
a Minute for Yoga
Yoga
Yoga recently participated in a national research project on the
benefits and practice of yoga. We discovered the number one reason
people gave for not doing yoga: not enough time! It can be difficult
to fit in a full yoga practice into a busy work day.
Try to remember that even a quick stretch in between meetings
or while waiting for a document to print can go a long way to
relieving stress and tension. Try this easy yoga posture the next
time you're at your desk or waiting for copies!
Supported Downward Dog
Start
standing upright, grounding through your feet, activating the
legs, and hands placed on a flat surface, like a desk.
On your inhale, feel your spine lengthen upward as your chest
and ribs expand.
On your exhale, engage your abdominal muscles as you walk your
feet back, coming into a 90 degree angle.
Keep your feet hip width apart, and directly under your hips.
Stay here and breathe four breaths, feeling the stretch all
through your back.
