SECRET YOGA
Why yoga in the workplace?
As the founder of SECRET YOGA, I'm on a mission to get yoga into more lives to combat workplace stress and the aches caused by desk and screen work.
Too often the current approach doesn't work; research shows that generalised head, neck and shoulder pain leads to at least 15% of all sick days with almost 50% of cases still present after 2 years. And as much as desk warriors often love the gym or to run or cycle, these activities don’t help those problems. In fact they can make them worse. And I haven’t mentioned back pain...
Yoga can help with all these issues but is often hard to access for busy people or perceived as elitist, a bit weird, overly time-consuming and ‘only for really flexible people…’. All of these are blockers to helping address the physical and mental strains of modern office with a toolset that's been making people feel better for thousands of years. So Secret Yoga was born - to sneak yoga into the workplace to gently disrupt static office culture and support healthy work/life integration. If you are working with Agile methods, yoga has many similarities that will resonate with your team.
