| OUR MISSION
To provide Yoga classes and workshops designed to increase employee productivity,
mental and physical health, and well being for optimal workforce performance.
OUR
PURPOSE
Yoga is a scientific discipline of removing or eradicating stress
and tension at its source.
All tension,
both physical and mental, is stored somewhere in the
body and true stress reduction is a matter of discovering
how to release that tension on both levels.
Yoga
programs directly address tension in both the body and
the mind. Our classes remove stress from both sources
since tension in one area has a direct effect on the
other.
The classes
offer simple, safe, and practical techniques that quickly
reduce tension and stress at any time and place, especially
in the office.
Our classes
provide you with the following:
- Ways
to identify stress signals and indicators
- Posture
improvement for tension management
- Strength
building for greater resistance to stress
- Techniques
for the workplace designed to alleviate tension before
it builds into stress
- Safe
exercises (designed over 2,500 years ago) that bring
more energy to the body
- Breathing
techniques that support healthy "Mood Management"

Consider
this...
"
The National Science Foundation reports that over 30% of American
adults experience enough daily stress to impact their performance
at home or at work."
" The American
Institute for stress has implicated stress as the cause
of nearly 90% of doctor visits in the U.S. The total annual costs
of stress to the average employer are staggering."
" The Effects of workplace
related stress are no surprise to today's employers. A 1992 UN
report called job stress
- The 20th. Century Epidemic."
" The World
Health Organization called job stress a "World Wide Epidemic."
" According
to the US Department of labor, two thirds of reported cases of
occupational stress are experienced by white collar workers, and
repetitive stress injuries have risen 1000% in the past 14 years.
These claims carry with them an estimated average expense exceeding
$14,000 per company."
