WORKPLACE
YOGA

Your staff are perhaps one of the most important assets to the company. Many employers see the benefit of investing to improve the workplace environment. One of the most popular choices is improving the employees’ wellness. 

​

Yoga in the workplace is gaining popularity as it has shown the return on the investment by helping to boost the company's reputation, increase employees loyalty, boost employees ability, and reduce stagnation.

 

Here are some reasons why yoga is a worthwhile investment:

 

1. Reduce stress and anxiety : Stress and anxiety are common in the workplace. It can happen from long working hours, heavy workloads, changes within the organisation, tight deadlines, changes to duties, job insecurity, lack of autonomy, boring work routines. Yoga can improve mood and relaxation while decreasing cortisol which is the stress hormone. Employees who are less stressed are more productive, engaged, and capable of producing their best work.

​

2. Improve focus and concentration :  Yoga has been repeatedly proven to improve memory retention, enhance and boost productivity levels, improve energy levels and improve overall well being.

​

3. Improve strength and flexibility : Office Syndrome is one of the health problems in the workplace. It is caused from lack of movement, spending long hours sitting at their desks. Yoga is a great way to improve strength and flexibility, reduce back pain, lower the risk of several musculoskeletal problems such as Carpal Tunnel Syndrome and repetitive strain injuries (RSIs).

​

4. Increasing employee health : Regular yoga practice can strengthen the immune system, lower risk of sickness and improve employees wellness.

​

5. Improve team building and morale : Yoga practice in the workplace is a platform to help team connections. Sharing yoga sessions provides an opportunity for employees to connect with one another outside their professional interactions.

​

6. Improving employees well being beyond the workplace : Yoga in the workplace can be beneficial for employees beyond their working hours. By including yoga sessions during the workday, employees may be better equipped to handle stress and feel better towards the workplace.
