Asanas for a busy manager

Good health requires a committed approach that can be met by quick office yoga

Its a fallacy to believe that Yoga postures require a special setting and specific time. Like much else in life, Yoga can be adapted to meet the needs and requirements of your hectic lifestyles, even during office hours. All that you need is a comfortable chair and a straight sitting posture. Do them at your own pace and your convenience and feel the difference.

  • Sit on the edge of the chair and spread your feet a little apart. Place your palms flat on your thighs facing downwards, your spine should be erect, looking straight ahead. Inhale and exhale evenly for five counts each. Repeat minimum 10 times.
  • Next, put both hands on your shoulders, with your elbows apart and then rotate your arms both clockwise and the anti-clockwise. Repeat 15 times each.
  • Place both hands on your chest, so that the arms overlap with each other. Now inhale and move your both arms outwards and while exhaling, bring them to the starting position. Repeat the exercise for a minimum 20 times.
  • Hold out your hands in front of you, with the both arms parallel to the ground. Now inhale and move both your arms outwards. Exhale and come to the previous position.
  • Lock fingers of both your hands with each other and stretch your hands over your back. Next, move both your hands in such a way that both elbows come in contact with each other, while you exhale. Repeat the movement 15 to 18 times.
