As we move through our lives, we continually experience the stress and
pressure brought about by our professions. Recently, yoga has been
recognized by business leaders as a counterbalance to those pressures, as
well as a path to physical health.
Corporate human resource and wellness departments are actively pursuing
creative approaches, such as yoga, to increase energy, motivate personnel
and infuse a feeling of well being among employees. The beauty of
yoga is that it can be done in most locations with minimal equipment
(a yoga mat), and can be shared by people of varied fitness levels and
ages.
Benefits for the employee include:
- Increased physical strength, flexibility and balance
- Increased focus and concentration skills
- Decreased tension, anxiety and mood swings
Currently, the Yoga Center works with the following companies in our
community:
- Sinclair Oil
- Fairchild Semiconductor
- The Grand America Hotel
