4 Yoga poses you can do at your desk.
When I worked in a faced paced corporate office, spending hours and hours in front of my laptop, the biggest thing I struggled with was poor posture, and devastating lower back pain.
The aching, cramping and discomfort I felt from sitting at a chair over my laptop all day was my worst enemy, until I found yoga and integrated these cheeky in office yoga hacks to break up my work day, and help improve my posture.
Here are four easy asanas (postures) you can sneak into your workday, right at your desk.
Seated in your chair, feet firmly planted hip distance apart in front of you, lengthen your spine on an inhale, and bend over sending your chest towards your thighs, keeping your spine long. Place your head between your legs, your chest resting on your thighs. Tuck your chin towards your chest gently and relax your neck, shoulders and upper back. You should feel a nice release of tension in this area and decompression of the spine. Hold here for 5 - 10 deep, full breaths. Your hands can either be on the floor or you can grab your elbows.
