The Big Idea

Promoting a Stress-Free Workplace

While many organizations understand the impact of employees’ health directly affecting companies’ performance, they have steadily started to integrate various physical activities into their corporate wellness schedules. These sessions have proven to provide steady mental and physical benefits to the employees. Yoga is actively paving its way towards the corporate wellness programs conducted in our workplace. Industry leaders like Apple, Google, and Forbes have introduced Desktop Yoga Practice into their corporate wellness modules and have reaped benefits like increased employee motivation, improved productivity, and lower absenteeism.

Having proved health benefits throughout the pages of history. The demand for corporate yoga has risen exponentially that many yoga trainers and yoga instructors provide their services specifically for corporate offices. Desktop Yoga Practice has been gaining prominence in workplaces around the world in the form of Wellness Wednesday, Monday Motivation, etc. It’s one of the primary responsibilities of the organization to provide a healthy & happy workplace of its employees to operate at their maximum without a glitch for optimum returns.

The Problem

Getaway from the monotonous work environment

An intra-city discovery & delivery platform firm wanted to hype up the organization with some relaxation experiences away from their ringing phones & customer scolds. With on-time delivery ticking everyone on the floor, batch breaks, excelling in consumer experience, & expecting a 5-star rating in every delivery made them work on their feet 24 * 7. This logistics chain decided to give a wellness break to their employees. It was time to bring a smile back on their faces after all the strain & stress they have been going through.

When your employees work non-stop throughout the day, they are bound to face stress which can lead to lower energy and burnout in the long run. They often spend long hours slouching over their desktops and unknowingly strain their neck forward as they stare at the computer screen. This unnatural posture at the workplace is unhealthy and can cause tremendous tension on the back causing spinal pain, neck strain, and shoulder stiffness which interrupts productivity as the workforce will be distracted by the discomfort and unable to focus on the tasks on hand.
