Desk Job & Yoga

As much as I love my job- and I REALLY do- it can be tough to sit at a desk all day. Combine this with the fact that I was in a car accident a few years ago and damaged my back/shoulder/neck...I sometimes find myself in pain. 

I am lucky to work for an organization that is pro-active in the health and wellness of it's employees. Our HR department used to meet three times a week to stretch together- all employees were invited to join. Next week, my work will have a more formal 3-times a week stretch break. I enjoyed the HR stretches and am looking forward to participating in the new stretch break too.

 Last week, this article- 5 Yoga Poses That Can Fix The Damage Your Desk Job Is Causing Your Body (With Method And Benefits) - from curejoy.com. I have been doing these yoga poses on a daily basis since coming across this article. These poses are simple to do, it's a quick yoga routine, and they have definitely helped with the aches and pains my back/neck have been experiencing the past few weeks.
