Fitness Solutions

Take a break from sitting at your desk in the stale office air and go for a brisk walk around the block. Just 10 minutes is all you need to clear your head and feel revived.

Get a feeling of calm and serenity with two easy yoga poses that can be done while sitting at your desk:

Step 1. Cross one leg over the other and place the opposite hand on your top leg.

Step 2. Gently twist your upper body in the opposite direction of your top knee, using your hand on the back of your chair for leverage.

Step 3. Take a few slow deep breaths in this position.

Step 4. Change sides and repeat.

Step 1. Begin by sitting up tall and pressing both feet into the floor.

Step 2. Raise both arms up straight overhead and press your palms together firmly.

Step 3. If you have no neck injuries, drop your head back slightly and look up at your thumbs. Make sure your shoulders are not hunched up next to your ears, so allow your shoulder blades to slide down your back.

Step 4. Close your eyes and take five deep breaths in and out of your nose in this posture.

Step 5. Slowly release your arms down to your sides and open your eyes.
