Why use Yoga, Mediation and Mindfulness at work?Stress-related injuries and conditions are increasing every day. Why? The average workweek is increasing from 40 to 50 hours, or more, per week. This means that the average employee is assuming more and more responsibilities and dealing with unprecedented challenges. All of this leads to an alarming amount of stress in our lives.Stress impacts our work environment by:
~Reducing productivity and morale
~ Increasing injury and turnover
~ Raising the cost of employee benefits
~ Increasing workers' compensation claims
How can Yoga, Meditation and Mindfulness help?We offer the tools to fit every business environment, every situation, and bring them to you and your employees! Together we will decide what will best create your desired outcome: traditional yoga classes for every "BODY", group lead seated relaxation, guided meditation, classes on stress reduction, mindfulness, effective methods of communication... the choices are many. All we need you to do is provide is a space in which to conduct the classes. Classes can be done in any open space, office, a conference room, cafeteria, gymnasium, or outdoors in good weather. We specialize in combating stress with our customized corporate yoga/meditation, mindfulness-based programs.
Yoga is a scientific discipline that offers practical and definitive results while addressing tension in both the body and the mind. Yoga is an on the mat as well as an off the mat practice. Yoga at the workplace has become popular in many companies nationwide because of the stress reduction benefits and the low cost of implementation. Unlike other exercise routines yoga is low impact, improves strength and flexibility, builds concentration, and reduces mental and physical stress and tension. In addition, yoga is known to eradicate fatigue and generate energy, all of which lead to increased productivity and morale. Yoga exercises are simple and can be modified for different skill levels and abilities - perfect for the office environment!
Anyone can practice yoga. The Yoga postures (asanas) exercise every part of the body, stretching and toning the muscles and joints, the spine and the entire skeletal system. And they work not only on the body's frame but on the internal organs, glands and nerves as well, keeping all systems in radiant health. By releasing physical and mental tension, they also liberate vast resources of energy. The breathing exercises revitalize the body and help to control the mind, leaving employees feeling calm and refreshed, while the practice of positive thinking and meditation gives increased clarity, mental power and concentration. While most stress management workshops just talk about how to deal with stress, our yoga programs get results. Your employees will learn and experience proven techniques that have immediate and lasting effects.All stress, both physical and mental, is stored somewhere in the body and true stress reduction is a matter of discovering how to release that tension on both levels. Yoga is the art and science of reducing mental and physical stress while increasing strength, flexibility, energy, and awareness.Yoga is much more than an exercise class. It offers simple, safe, and practical techniques that quickly reduce tension and stress in your employees. Plus, it is easy to do, portable and, best of all, cost effective. In our yoga programs the participant will experience proven and practical techniques that can have immediate and long-term effects. They will face the workday armed with an arsenal of stress-combating exercises they can do right in the office.

Consider this...
" The National Science Foundation reports that over 30% of American adults experience enough daily stress to impact their performance at home or at work."
" According to the US Department of labor, two thirds of reported cases of occupational stress are experienced by white collar workers, and repetitive stress injuries have risen 1000% in the past 14 years. These claims carry with them an estimated average expense exceeding $14,000 per company." The American Institute for stress has implicated stress as the cause of nearly 90% of doctor visits in the U.S. The total annual costs of stress to the average employer are staggering."
" The Effects of workplace related stress are no surprise to today's employers. A 1992 UN report called job stress - The 20th. Century Epidemic."
" The World Health Organization called job stress a "World Wide Epidemic."
