Corporate Yoga is a tailored yoga program designed specifically for workplace settings to promote employee well-being and productivity. It involves simple yoga postures, breathing exercises, and mindfulness techniques that can be easily practiced in an office environment. Corporate yoga helps reduce stress, improve focus, and enhance physical and mental health among employees. It fosters a positive and harmonious workplace culture by encouraging relaxation and boosting energy levels. These sessions can be conducted during breaks or as part of wellness programs. By improving posture and alleviating desk-job-related discomforts, it supports long-term health. Corporate yoga is a practical solution for companies aiming to enhance employee performance and overall job satisfaction.
Employee wellness and health programs are a must for corporates considering a high number of lifestyle diseases and stress prevalent in today’s time. As per Wellhub report 2024, nearly half (47%) of the global workforce from 9 countries (5000 global employees being surveyed), identify work stress as the primary cause of their deteriorating mental health. These are alarming numbers which are further going to worsen if any corrective action is not taken NOW.
Workplace wellness programs should be a part of the overall company strategy for a healthy workforce. Corporates who are committed to promoting work/life balance through yoga as a means, tend to keep their employees motivated, healthy and productive. Yoga is a perfect exercise that strengthens both mind and body thereby reducing fatigue and increasing energy levels. Corporate Yoga is a practise that can be done with very little space (sometimes at employees desk), minimal equipment and an avoidable wardrobe change in a desk format.
