Hey friends,
You’re busy. Trust us, we get it. Maybe you don’t have a full hour to practice yoga during your lunch break or after work. How about 5 minutes? Or even a couple minutes? We know you have at least a couple minutes and lucky for you it doesn’t take more than that to re-innergize your body with a few quick stretches. 
What are some the benefits of preforming stretches throughout your workday?
- Get blood flowing throughout your body
- Improve flexibility
- Increases focus and productivity
- Increases range of motion
- Improves posture *cough especially when you sit at a computer all day cough*
- Can be great stress release
- Can calm the mind
Not only is stretching great for your body physically it also boosts your mental state and gives you energy to tackle the rest of the day — whatever it might bring. Try taking a couple minutes in the morning and a couple minutes in the afternoon to perform a few quick stretches at your desk and see for yourself how great it feels.
Have you checked out our Take 5 to Innergize page under the Resource tab on our site? There you will find all kinds of stretches you can perform at your desk that will leave you feeling loose, limber and ready to take on the world…or at least the rest of your work 😉
