We all know that yoga is great for the body, especially for suppleness and mobility, but did you know that it’s fantastic for helping you focus and concentrate at work too?
We’re not suggesting you grab a mat and start doing the downward dog in the middle of the office, surrounded by fragile glass office furniture, but in your spare time, learning a few key yoga poses could be enough to help you cut out the noise and really knuckle down and focus on those projects at work which are perhaps causing you some annoyance.
Check out this video for a few useful poses for concentration and mental focus.
As you can see, these poses and exercises aren’t super difficult, and could really help you out at work!
The popularity of yoga has certainly been on the rise over the last few years, but this a discipline which is as old as the hills! Whilst you’re at your office desk, you can easily incorporate a few simple yoga moves, such as stretching your neck and turning your head from side to side, these increase blood flow and therefore concentration! In terms of the best daily habits to incorporate for productivity in the office, yoga is one of the best.
If you want to take it a step further, as an employer, why not have group yoga sessions during lunch breaks? Clear out the boardroom chairs from your meeting rooms and throw down some mats! Instant afternoon productivity.
