ON-THE-JOB STRESS SOOTHERS

When Alma Escoffery needs a little R&R, she turns to Dr.Zeudiann Coleman, a Holistic Chiropractor in Atlanta,GA, whose high-flying clientele comes to her for adjustments, Here are some of her suggestions for how to combat tension and fatigue when you are on the job. These exercises are quick and easy  and can be done virtually anywhere,any time you need a break. An yoga instructor can help you with the postures and be sure you are doing them correctly . Life at work can be very stressful. to still the restlessness of mind without leaving your work area can be valuable tool,turning a hectic morning into a serene afternoon. before you get into Asanas,calm the mind with a simple breathing exercise.Breathing is an integral aspect of yoga. It generates heat (to soften muscles), relaxes the body, and help block out distractions. Deep breathing expands the stomach during inhalation, which drops the diaphragm down and create a vacuum that can draw more air into the lungs.

1.Place your hand on your stomach; take a deep breath through your nose and feel your stomach expand like a balloon.

2.Exhale through your nose while pulling your stomach inward. This forcefully,expels the air, making more room for the next breath.

3. Repeat 15 to 20 times. Now you are  ready to do the posture work.
