Work can be a stressful situation - people yelling, people running around, people refusing to put more paper in the copier - and it can be rather easy to get caught up in the stress: stress generates more stress. However, practicing yoga at work helps to keep you calm, helping you to rise above the stress rather than be piled under it. This is because yoga, through breathing and mindful practices, teaches you to take one moment at a time, with little concern for the issues - a presentation, a disgruntled employee, a computer crash -that may arise later in the day. Yoga helps to center you, and to focus on positive emotions - bringing you into balance. This, ultimately, makes you a calmer, more productive employee. It also facilitates focus and concentration, allowing you to get things done one task at a time.

Practicing yoga at work gives you a well deserved break even if you are just sneaking in an asana here or there as an excuse to take a much needed, and necessary, rest. Because sitting at a desk can be monotonous, it's easy for your body to adapt to the monotony in the form of a cramp or an ache. Sometimes we get caught up in what we are doing that we forget to take a conscious breath, to open the body through a stretch, to get fresh air, or to take a moment for ourselves. Purposefully performing yoga, however, allows us to be more in tune with when our body needs a break. This rest is not only important to your muscular structure and physical functions, but it is also vital to your eyes, your mind, and your work morale.

It helps to keep emotional balance and you are never pushed over the edge when things get tough.

With continuous practice of Yoga in Yoga classes combined with meditation, you reach a level where your mind gets so detached from emotional weaknesses that no matter what happens around you, you will never get affected by it and would be able to take your decisions logically. Whenever the going gets tough, you still have that inner tranquility which pulls you through the situation.
