Workplace Stress and Yoga
Stress can be stored and accumulated at a cellular level which often manifests as: irritability, fatigue, insomnia, headaches, upset stomach, constipation, heart palpitations etc. If left unchecked, it can eventually evolve into chronic illness and disease.
Stress in the workplace often translates into increased human error and dysfunctional interpersonal relationships. Yoga teaches employees new healthy mechanisms for coping with stress. Once a regular, consisted yoga practice is established, a new cellular memory is created that helps one to manage stress more effectively.
Integrating yoga into the workplace is especially valuable for employees who work long hours, have sedentary jobs or must perform repetitive movements throughout their day.
How you feel physically will affect how you function mentally.
