Yoga for the office - gives new energy

Back creases - for the neck

That's how it works: After a long desk work, this exercise relaxes the cramped neck muscles, mobilizing the shoulders and upper back area.

Basic position: While sitting, put both hands on your shoulders. Put one arm down next to the fuselage, extend the other with the elbow upwards.

That's how it's done: Slowly draw large circles in the air with both elbows out of the shoulder joint. If one arm goes up-rear, the other moves down-front. This creates a flowing movement that resembles the back crawl while swimming. Important: The ribcage and spine should not remain rigid, but should be moved freely.

duration: 1 to 3 minutes.



Moon breathing - for more peace

That's how it works: The breath draws our attention inwards - the moon energy gives us deep rest.

Basic position: In the upright position, place the thumb of the right hand on the right, place the ring finger on the left nostril. Bend index and middle finger, stretch the little finger. The left hand is on the left thigh.

That's how it's done: Exhale through both nostrils, then close the left nostril with the ring finger and exhale through the right nostril. Then close the right nostril with your thumb and inhale left. Mentally absorb the soothing moon energy with the inhalation. Continue in this rhythm - just exhale on the right and inhale only on the left.

duration: 3 to 5 minutes, then track down.



Archer - to bundle the energy

That's how it works: This exercise bundles your energy.

Basic position: Look over the right shoulder in the wide gravel stand, right toe in the direction of sight, turn the left slightly. Bend right knee until it is above the ankle, stretch left leg. Raise both arms to shoulder height, right forward, left stretch back.

That's how it's done: Bring forward the left arm, including the shoulder belt. Both hands clenched into a fist, thumbs straight up. Tense an imaginary bowstring with your left fist and pull your fist back next to your left shoulder. Focus on the right thumb and focus on a target. Inhale and exhale deeply for 1 to 3 minutes. Page change.



Eye Care - against tired eyes

That's how it works: This exercise makes tired eyes alert and relaxes the eye muscles. That's good if you sat in front of the screen for a long time or read a lot.

Basic position: In the upright position, place your left hand loosely on your thigh. Stretch the right arm horizontally forward, curl up the fingers slightly and stretch the thumb upwards.

That's how it's done: Focus on the thumb nail with inhalation, hold a point in the distance behind the thumb with the exhale. Repeat for five deep breaths. At the end of the exercise, rub hands together vigorously for a while. Then gently put the warm palms on the closed eyelids. Breathing deeply, feel the warmth and energy and come to rest.
