Doesn’t Have Enough Time To Exercise? Here Are Five Yoga Poses You Can Do at Your Desk

Sometimes, we don’t have enough time to care for an exercise especially when we’re late for work or we’re working at very early in the morning and get home late at night. We become stagnant on work and because of this unhealthy habit, we are developing physical problems like pain on the back, head, neck, arms and hips.

What to do then? If you’re spending a lot of hours sitting on your desk working, try doing some yoga that will make you feel good and make your mind take a rest. Here are five of the most easiest yoga poses you can do every day at every hour you want.

1. Scale Pose

Sit at the edge of your chair, press your hands down on either side of your hips and raise your legs and butt up off the seat. Engage your deep abdominal muscles and keep the tops of your shoulders down; hold for 3 to 5 breaths. Lower and repeat 2 more times.
