7 Desk Yoga Poses To Relieve Stress At Work There is no surprise to the fact that spending more than eight hours each day sitting at a desk can be really dangerous for your health. The strains of sitting in the office chair can lead to some serious issues like shoulder, neck, and lower back pain through pressure on the lumbar spine, over-stretching of the mid and upper back, as well as shortening of the hips and chest. However, there are various yoga techniques that you can easily follow to relieve these tension and stress at workplace. Below mentioned are the top 7 desk yoga poses at your workplace to relieve stress and feel more relaxed. Extended Mountain Pose: Sit comfortably in your chair with your feet flat on the ground, look up, take your arms straight up to the sky, and touch your palms together. Extended Side Angle Pose: Sit towards the front of your chair with your feet flat on the ground with your legs and feet together.
