Yoga Poses You Can Do In Your Office
Many working people tend to complain that they don't have time to practice yoga.
The good side is that there are a number of poses that you can engage in while in the office.
Here are some of the poses: Neck rolls If you are wearing high heels you need to remove them before you can start stretching.
You should then close your eyes and let your chin drop down to your chest.
You should then begin circling your neck slowly.
For ideal results you should ensure that your shoulders are relaxed.
You should also avoid circling your head fast especially in areas of tightness.
For maximum benefits you should take 3-5 rolls then switch directions.
Cat-cow stretch You should put both of your feet on the floor then bring your hands on your knees.
