Office Yoga can improve your physical health and reduce your stress levels while you work. Here are some simple yoga poses you can do without leaving your desk.

You don’t have to be a “yoga person” to do office yoga, anyone can do it.

Not only that, it can help you to de-stress, recharge your batteries, and get your focus and productivity back on track.

Originally found at Furniture@Work UK’s blog, practicing these poses at your desk will minimize your discomfort throughout the day, making it easier for you to remain productive and focus on your work.
